Hope is the Thing With Feathers: Last Tuesday morning, 24 hours after my normal mammogram
http://gabbykm2.blogspot.com/2010/02/last-tuesday-morning-24-hours-after-my.html
Hope is the Thing With Feathers. Tuesday, February 9, 2010. Last Tuesday morning, 24 hours after my normal mammogram. And we hadn't had a time to connect and talk about how she was doing, her grief, and also about me and my year and everything that had gone on since the last time we were able to make time together for a walking conversation. I love the winter now, I told Marjorie, I see the beauty in it, this kind of morning and you know I never had been able to before, I just sort of slugged through the...

Hope is the Thing With Feathers: March 2010
http://gabbykm2.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Hope is the Thing With Feathers. Sunday, March 14, 2010. I'm planning yet another ritual for this week. Some of them are from friends close to me, some from acquaintances, some from kids at Mishkan, some from friends of friends. Some are personal notes, some are funny. Some I ripped open and read quickly before dashing off to get the kids at school; some I held and read again and again if their message really lifted me up. But if you look closely, I bet that you would. I don't mean that I have curly ...

Hope is the Thing With Feathers: George turned 7 last monday,
http://gabbykm2.blogspot.com/2010/01/george-turned-7-last-monday.html
Hope is the Thing With Feathers. Sunday, January 24, 2010. George turned 7 last monday,. I know there are a lot of single parents raising children with autism and my God, I salute them and I am grateful for my partnership with Fred. George has moments like that, his crying Friday at school, when he can't express the complexity of what he's feeling. It's so hard to be with and I so desparately hope that his verbal expression continues to grow this year. We need a breakthrough;. And I'm not going to write ...

Hope is the Thing With Feathers: Last week I cooked artichokes
http://gabbykm2.blogspot.com/2010/02/last-week-i-cooked-artichokes.html
Hope is the Thing With Feathers. Thursday, February 25, 2010. Last week I cooked artichokes. And we had fun, eating slowly, picking off the leaves. June wanted to try one and she liked it. I showed her how to dip the leaf (though I used olive oil instead of butter) just the way that my grandmother had taught me to do, when she made artichokes for us during a visit to our house when I was seven-years-old. That was who my Grandma was in my life-. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I am a 38-year-old woman...

Hope is the Thing With Feathers: I didn't that the the year turning from 2009 to 2010
http://gabbykm2.blogspot.com/2010/01/i-didnt-that-the-year-turning-from-2009.html
Hope is the Thing With Feathers. Monday, January 11, 2010. I didn't that the the year turning from 2009 to 2010. The kids went to bed easily and I found myself in a tearful, hopeful place; the marking of the new year crept up on me but once I turned around and looked at it, I realized that it was a meaningful moment. This is an email I wrote New Years Eve and sent to friends:. I am moving forward with all of my dreams. Since writing. The Creative Jewish Wedding Book. Lots of love,. Its Shera Dubitsky fro...

http://gabbykm2.blogspot.com/2010/02/presidents-day-2009-was-when-i-found-my.html
Hope is the Thing With Feathers. Friday, February 19, 2010. President's day 2009 was when I found my lump. After spending the day with Miss Mira and parents, I drove to Fairfax to have dinner and stay overnight with my sister, brother-in-law and nephews which was also really fun and then I got up early Monday, President's Day, drove home and spent the day with my kids. Things that maybe I haven't been conscious of before or that maybe I have avoided, but now, a year after finding that lump and looking ha...

Hope is the Thing With Feathers: Friday night was Tu B'shevat

Hope is the Thing With Feathers. Monday, February 1, 2010. Friday night was Tu B'shevat. But now he is 7! Just the two of us at home, no June, no Fred, no music, no TN, no phone ringing, just us, Mommy and George huddled inside and the snow falling out our wondow onto our little front lawn, onto Union Avenue. And as I held him. There I said it, that there's a piece of me that had never gotten through that pain. I've said it. I held you and it was silent in the house except for my tears releasing and fall...
