Ooooooh Lovely! I received a note from someone who just happend to find my blog while searching for Dave Van Ronk, and he sent the most amazingly warm, kind words that made my heart soar, and lightened my load for a bit.
And, I smiled!!! A big ol' genuine grin up and into my eyes!!!
Who knew that this was ever going to be read by anyone.Thank you Ian -- I will be emailing you soonest, and if I get your permission, I'd love to put a link to your site! [did I mention he's from Edinburgh?] This weekend I had moments of non-stress /non-fear -- maybe Ian really did do some magic as he worked in his garden after all...thank you! Actually, having moments of non-panic confused me and I thought maybe I was merely enjoying and being a drama queen about the upcoming MD sessions and surgery, but the good news /bad news was that, nope, starting last night, youch -- it came back many-fold, and now I'm shaking while I wait to speak to Marilyn. But, lest I forget, I am heartened to have actually had a moment or two of "peace" (for lack of a good adjective). I saw both Girls and the kids this weekend. Katie came up to chat with me, she rarely does that, so I asked Gordy if maybe he said something to the kids. Well, yes he did, and so I figured that's why she was so warm and sought me out to talk girl talk. But, as I've always said, I don't 2nd guess the reason for their actions, if they (the family) want to be nice, if there is some motive behind it or not, I'll take it with open, loving arms! I so dearly love these kids and grandkids! I have adopted them in my heart a long time ago! And I'm so sad that, no matter the outcome of the biopsy, that I will have to somehow abstain from the "Mike_Running_Into_My_Arms_And_I_Lift_Him_Into_The_Air" {{{hug}}} for way too many weeks after the surgery re: healing. This isn't fair...just when I need unbridled love-hugs, I can't get it because my body won't let me. ;p~~~ ##
