“Losing Sarah and my boy was the hardest thing I've ever lived through. But even then, you see, I knew that Eleanor was with me. If not here, then at least in the world, where I could find her. I could think of her living in that old house with her father, I could write to her if I chose. She was the anchor in my world, no matter how far I was from her. But if I lose her... Ian, I lose myself. I can't live. Not without Eleanor.” LossIanEleanorHartAnchor Book:A Mackenzie Family Christmas: The Perfect Gift Source: A Mackenzie Family Christmas: The Perfect Gift
