Dawson in “Unfinished Business”

Dear Louie, Chief Boden asked us to write letters to our loved one in case something ever went wrong on a call. I had the hardest time writing this letter until you came into my life. I've given up a lot to get to where I am but, when I look at you, I know it was all worth it. I want you to know that the life I've lived, the sacrifices I've made, it was in the service of helping others. Sacrifice is the hardest of all human actions, but anyone who puts on a uniform to help others knows it's also the most important. We pay a price for our service and sometimes that price is beyond our limits. I've made mistakes and bad choices, but life has a way of giving all of us second chances. Never doubt the power of goodness in one's heart. Or, for a single second, that together we make an incredible family. And you will be loved, always.
