In the earliest days following my younger sister’s sudden death, I stumbled through painful memories and clawed my messy way toward radical acceptance.
I'm really glad this popped up and stayed up until I read it. It's such a great share, story, show and tell of how to climb "every mountain". I often feel with Substack there is too much to see and read. Last Thursday I commented that I believe there is another dynamic that leads us right where we needed to be, to be open to exactly what can make the most sense and why. This was you, and this piece right now. You made my day.
Thank you, Andy. That one was gut wrenching to write, but as I hope I’m demonstrating here, writing saves me. How lucky we are as writers to have a way to channel life’s most painful, revelatory, meaningful moments and share them with others?
From one writer to another, thank you for reading this. It means the world to me.

Oh WOW! You’ve left me at a loss for words. Thank you for this. You just made MY day.
Wow! That was amazing! Remind me to hug you next time our paths cross.
Heck, no reminder needed, you’re getting a hug, no matter what.
I look forward to that!
Once again, you have written with extraordinary depth, humanity and, most of all, heart. Amazing.
