It's still really, really hard for me to do this work, John.
Almost seven years later, I'm always thinking about my beautiful butterfly Dylan.
I rarely burst into tears, but I often find tears falling without realizing I've started to cry. There's a feeling of incredible sadness for me – even as we gain momentum, even as we stop more school shootings – because no matter what I do or how many lives are saved in Dylan's name, I will never get him back. The hole in my heart can never be filled.
But it's my responsibility now to make sure no other parent has to live with the ever-present pain of losing a child to gun violence, a heart that never stops bleeding.
That's why I need your help tonight. We only have a few hours left to raise the final $27,840 we need to secure every dollar of this match. So please, before you go to sleep tonight, can I count on you to donate to have your gift doubled – to give my beautiful butterfly Dylan a legacy and protect more children from gun violence?
Here's the link to give and double your impact:

I often think of the different choices I could have made that might have saved my baby boy. I can't go back and choose differently, but you can make a choice now that prevents gun violence from tearing other families apart.
Thank you so much for your support – it truly means the world to me.
With love,
Nicole Hockley (Dylan's mom)
