I am so glad that you are medically boring as you are very dear to me as well! I am so touched that you have have preordered Jill McCorkle's new collection for me. I am a huge fan. As to your question about what keeps me hopeful and at peace: an antidepressant, running, eating more nutitiously than I have in years, good books, and staying connected with the many special people in my life. I am going check out Wild Girls. Thank you so much for the book, and FTT. My love to you and your entire family.

Thank you, Belle! as always- so wise and informative- I can't think of anything healthier than what you describe as medically and emotionally boring. I also appreciate the sweet shout out. And Ramona read by Stockard Channing!!! I think i have to tune in- I have such wonderful memories of the Cleary books. Thank you for all that you and FTT bring to us.

the screaming comment was from a medically emotional crazy grandma who had just listened to a heartbreaking report on NPR about the impact of the harsh abortion laws on women families and even fetuses!
