I got this out of NooNoo’s diary. (Why did you have to name yourself after a teletubby character, NooNoo? I always feel silly calling you by your username.) What obscure animal are you? Sugar Gliders are nocturnal In the wild they eat mostly fruits As pets they love sugar cubes and other sweets They’re very…
A binary event: This will be my 1111th entry here. Why that should be significant is beyond me, but it amuses, and so I will note the occasion. Last night I was awakened from a sound sleep by one of the worst calf cramps I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve been experiencing some minor…
Crud. I’ve been looking forward to SciFi channel’s dramatization of Earthsea since I first heard about it last summer. I can’t say I was following the production news that closely, but I assumed that even a typical SciFi station screw up would result in at least a watchable version of the books. Apparently I’m wrong….
Thereâs Living, and then thereâs Life. These days I find myself so enmeshed in the Living part of things that I lose track of Life. Itâs a forest for the trees sort of thing. When I do have time to search the forest, I sometimes find myself contemplating mortalityâs end. It isnât the sort of…
Sister the Younger presented me with a Nook for my birthday this past weekend. I’d been interested in e-readers, but had been holding off because they’re still pretty heavily in development. I learned from the old Beta vs. VHS wars that the best format doesn’t necessarily win, and I didn’t want go with the wrong…
Weird and bad week. The new job is stressful (I have a new appreciation for the foot-soldiers out there in the world of retail and commerce). The loss of Warrior Princess weighs heavily on me. Friends are troubled, and I cannot help. The Prof is reluctantly in his state of origin for a visit with…
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.
