I haven't blogged in a while because I got too tired. Too tired of trying to make meaning of all of this. It seems that the smartest thing I can do for now is to lay it all down. As with any dark cloud (that you survive), I have faith in the lessons that will result from this and in the silver lining, in general. But I thought then and I still think that it's best for me and my brain to take a little vacation from meaning-making.
The update is that I'm poised between recovering from surgery and radiation, which begins on 11/5 and ends on 12/20. If I could think of any way to get out it, I would. But I'm too smart for that.
Chances are if you are a reader, then you are also a friend. And I thank you sincerely for both. The readership has meant the world to me, as have the cards and calls and email. Love and care from others has fueled me through this very challenging chapter. But to everything there is a season. And I believe this is my season to be quiet. But thank you. I'll be in touch.
