Sad January 6, 2008
I can’t express how sad I am for Joanna.
I’ve spent years expecting that I would lose my parents before my contemporaries simply by virtue of the fact that they are older than the parents of everyone else I know. Yet my niece lost her dad suddenly 4 years ago and my nephew lost his mum to melanoma a couple of years later. And now Joanna has lost her mum. I am confused and saddened by the unfairness of it at the same time as I am humbled by my own good fortune.
As always, I can only echo Mark and say that we are here. Day or night. Big or small.
