Early this month, I reported that every time I stepped out the door in New York City during my press tour, I saw the word “Ghost” splattered across the tops of cabs everywhere. I figured it must be Patrick sending me a sign that he was there with me. And it was a joyous, and […]

LOVE BARELY CONTAINED
I opened my computer this morning, and saw a link to a video on CNN.com – “Cancer Patient Marries in Hospital.” I clicked it open, and held by breath. I knew I was tempting fate by doing so, and putting myself in a position to test my whittled-down strength. It hasn’t been a good last […]
WILD THANGS
A friend of mine posted this wonderful little story.
