My feelings on Monica’s exit on Chicago Fire
So it’s true! The official news finally came out and from the woman I wanted to hear it from all along! We all know that many sites were speculating and ya I didn't want to hear it when it came out. I kinda went through the stages of grief which might be weird to hear. I’m a FANGIRL though! So to me all of this is normal. First i didn't believe it! It just didn't seem real to me. I thought season 7 come that Dawsey would have their baby. I wouldn't say I was angry but maybe I was just angry that I didn't know nothing. I went through all the emotions! I just couldn't accept it. Until now I finally could accept it and feel at ease about everything. It was finally real and it hurt less knowing we weren’t put through months of wondering. To get this beautifully written letter made it easier and I applaud Monica For That.
Also I supposed this was hard to come to terms with at first because it came out of nowhere. I didn't expect it. I feel like maybe if I had time and knew prior I could have accepted it faster. I could have prepared myself. That isn't real though. In life fictional character or not you don't know what’s about to come
Gabby Dawson was my favorite character on Fire. I don't really know why I related to her so much, but i did. I cant pin point each reason why I felt a connection between me and her. I guess maybe if I could think of one thing I would have to say maybe because of her strength and I think i’m just as strong! She also has inspired me to not feel like I can’t show my strength.
Not only will I miss Gabby, but I will miss Monica! She’s an incredible actress and I cant wait to see what she does next!
Thanks for 6 badass seasons of Gabby Dawson Monica
