Just wanted to delurk and say that I’m thinking of you. I found my way here through facebook I think- I’m just one of the far to many in the “Batten Circle” I wish I had the right words to say but after a 1 1/2 years down a journey that no parent should ever have to face, I’m not sure that there are any. If you ever need a sympathetic ear, please feel free to drop me a line. Sometimes just venting to someone who “knows” does help.

For what it’s worth, despite everything else, Happy (belated) Birthday!

There’s no question that things feel truly horrible right now, and that makes complete sense, but it doesn’t also mean that *you* aren’t worthy of celebrating. You’re a great, ultimately-positive-even-in-the-face-of-an-easily-overwhelming-hell-on-earth, strong, and much-loved woman who has done, and will continue to do, wonderful things for herself, her family, and her friends. Full stop.

It is pouring rain outside. Tonight will be good for a movie and a cup of tea. I might even get stuff for nachos. If nothing else it is company and distraction.

I’m so sorry, Kate. I think it would feel near impossible to have a good birthday this year. I hope there are moments today that are a little brighter, at least. Much love from the Canuck *hugs*
