I live just across the water from you, MJ, in Portland. Daydee used to go to the Portland clinic and she made the transition for me from the Seattle clinic to the Portland clinic much easier by telling me who was who and what to expect.
Eva really brought the cf community together. I will always feel indebted to her for the wonderful friendships I cultivated following her example.
And Talana, I'm really glad you were able to bring Eva some comfort and that she brought you so much comfort. I also take heart in seeing how comfortable you are with your quiet faith. There are a lot of people out there who in an effort to spread the good word, make me feel alienated, and make me think they think I'm less of a person because I'm atheist. My first reaction is to lash out, but I know that doesn't do anyone any good.
It makes me feel good to know that there are people like you out there who still try to see the best in everyone, which I think in turn makes the world a little bit more livable for everyone.
That was a nice post about Eva. I knew you were close to her and have wondered how you were doing after she passed on. I hope your health will hold up for a long time and I think being scared is normal. Hugs to you!
do you mind if i add you as a friend? i haven't updated much recently, but i hope to change that soon. i've known eva via livejournal for.. two years? and though i never met her in person, i loved her. still do, of course. i moved to seattle from nyc in the fall and hoped so much to meet her on this coast.. but she fell too sick, and my own health issues prevented me from traveling for awhile.
