Brilliant wordplay, brilliant social commentary, brilliant light shone on the irrational shame of disability, and such a deep moving story of your relationship with your daughter. Thanks as always
I have Nora’s book about her neck. I also have a daughter who is having a son. I loved “Once upon a time her had sought mine.” She needs me differently now, and I’m curious about how she’ll reach out once her baby is born.
I can never remember the short cuts to real words ie "LOL". And I happen to love words..... and writing them out .....and putting them in different arrangements.... into sentences that sometimes accumulate into a paragraph.....what a wondrous thing to happen. A miracle. I have little Field Note books full of sentences that caught my eye and heart. And I love your writing and am grieved by the absence of your daughter.
p.s. I loved everything Nora E. ever did and though I never met her I felt we knew one another and I miss her so much.

Wise words.
I find myself aching for the untold story about your daughter.
So true. Why is everything shortened now? IDK, lol
I am sorry about the situation with your daughter.
