I did a little IP checking – you were number 16,000. If I can figure out an appropriate prize, I’ll send it your way. Anyhow, enough with the family history. We are who we are, and we each deal with it our own separate ways. I really don’t write in this journal for an opportunity…
I’ve come down with a cold. I went to bed with just a wee bit of a scratchy throat, but woke up around two o’clock with the sweats and the swallows. I’m just hoping I’ve caught it early enough to be over it by the twenty-second. I flew when I had a cold early this…
Didn’t she say she worked in the World Trade Center? I can’t take it in. I watched the second tower get hit on television. I watched the first tower collapse, and then the second, knowing that I was watching the deaths of thousands. I’m crying for strangers, and for two friends who may well have…
Not particularly flattering, eh? Ah well, I’ll take “apple” over “banana” any day of the week. Finally heard from The Professor, who made a quick pass through cyberspace last night. He found a way to download one of the digital pictures from his camera onto the net (don’t ask me how; I didn’t think he…
Finally got a chance to take an accurate count of the little buggers last night. Yeah, I know. Color me bored. Since the operation, I have been doomed to sleep on my back. This is not a good thing. I never sleep on my back, but always on one side or the other. While the…
An acorn is not an oak tree. It is a sad thing when the acorn must be uprooted before it unfurls even a single leaf, but is not an act of deforestization. There are times and places inappropriate for acorns to grow. I have yet to see a person who complains of and prays against…
this is the kind of letter that is tough to write, but you pull it off. too bad they can’t know more about you.
I think that’s pretty good. I tried to read it from the recipient’s perspective. I think that you waited until this time of year is actually very good. The first holiday season after losing a loved one is very difficult, and this letter might make it easier. The only thing I might even suggest to add is that you are taking exceptional care of their child’s liver, that you don’t drink and are careful about medication that could damage it. They might feel better to know that the doctors are unsure as to why your original liver failed but that you were not engaging in behaviors that could have put you at risk. Oh, and you could add that it is working normally.
The above are just suggestions, and those particulars are not necessary, I suppose, but if it were the Kid, I would feel better to know that whoever got his organs would take good care of them.

Great letter. You have always had a way with words.
Beautiful…
Beautiful…
Beautiful.
What a beautiful letter.
I would not change a thing.
Telling them about your past health would only make them sad and they do not need to know that.
You did an excellent job telling them just what they needed to know….that you are leading a ‘normal, healthy and happy life’ once again, thanks to their ‘decision’.
That will make them ‘happy’ knowing that they did they right thing. Also knowing that part of ‘them’ is living on, in you, is comforting to them, alone.
Again….
What a Beautiful letter.
Love,
Honey
P.S…
You letter also tells them…
What a ‘Beautiful person’ you are.
I think it’s a great letter. I think you did a great job showing how much a difference it has made to your life. I’m glad you were able to find the words.
