Letter to Mark

Dear Mark,

As the moderator for the blog site nearly every day I post the poignant letters Donna writes. I carefully edit and take the steps to post the many messages to make sure folks know how you are doing. I forward emails and upload photos.

The other thing I do every day is read all of those notes and messages and learn how you are doing. I share the information with the other friends who live here – Kenny and Ann – as well as the many friends I see or email often like Andrea, Penelope, Christina, Tre, Lisa, Ron and others. So far I have basically kept “radio silence” on the blog and only served as the moderator.

Tonight, I don’t know, there was something about learning you could speak to your mother for the first time in 36 days, knowing you might get to actually eat soon, reading about how you’d been moved and the process seemed to be going very well, I just…started crying…happy tears for you, and couldn’t stay silent any longer. It is so wonderful to read that you are progressing so well. There is still a rough road ahead, yet the progress is sounding tremendous.

Your mom is a rock! She has been amazing through all of this. When all is said and done she will need a massage too. Here at our house we send you healing thoughts daily and also send thoughts of strength and healing to Donna and Tal. We know this is difficult for your entire family.

There are so many people still sending love, energy and healing thoughts your way every day and I truly believe it is making a difference. You have many messages, cards and letters Donna will be reading to you. Eventually you will probably be reading the blog and maybe even adding to it. Know that everyone loves you and is thinking about you all the time, even those that don’t write a card or call because maybe they don’t know what to say, or just get too choked up to do so. You are special to many people and we all are here standing with out-stretched hands ready to help.

With love and light,

Eva
