Deborah has suffered a heart attack previously which has left her unable to use her hands properly, but according to Thomas, she was working to gain her handwriting back. Thomas found she’d left him a note that read “I’m going to miss you a lot. I love you.”

Thomas decided to honor her memory by getting the note tattooed on himself.
