What to say???

It's so difficult to find the words to express the love, fear, pain and utter disbelief that I feel every waking day. I've heard and read the same from so many friends, family and strangers that they have no words to say or write. It's the silence that I totally understand where this person is coming from and what they want to tell me but are unable to. A hug, a look in the eye, or even a quick nod are all that I need to know that you are there walking every step of the way with me.

This evening at Corrina's I was tag teamed into following through on a long ago planned trip to visit Dylan and family in San Diego this coming November. I don't want to leave Connecticut and Corrina even for a minute but Corrina's convincing words "I'm okay and you must go" are what's propelling me to follow through on these travel plans. The only caveat is that my primary job as Corrina's handler has to be to fill her calendar during the period of time while I'm away and especially on the days when David works in NYC. I know I can hold up my end of this bargain. I've also promised to FT with her while I'm away ;-0

Know that Corrina is doing quite well during her treatment program and that her team and those of you loving and supporting near and far are an amazing force. I will be okay traveling to the West Coast as she will be just fine on the East Coast.
