Subject: RE: BS: Facing Mortality & Keeping In Touch
My brother { Hello Ironmule ! } lurks here but rarely posts. My guess is that he would post something but I'll confirm that with him soon. I never would have thought about that - I wouldn't have thought that enough people would care but after my son Patricks death last December and the number of personal messages and contacts I received I realise how wrong I was. It was a great comfort to both my wife and I - and she's never been here. I know I'm feeling very mortal now. My mother died one week ago today and thats a sure fire way to see the face of the grim reaper. On top of that I had a car wreck yesterday on my first day back at work. As the song says "If it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all". I'm beginning to wonder if Someone is pissed off at me. I've got an appointment for a complete checkup. And I'm driving very slowly now. But it is nice to know that we belong to a community that cares even if we have never met face to face.
