Today is my sister Teresa’s birthday. 🎂 She is funny, thoughtful, warm, loving and an incredible sister, mom and grandmother. I’ve looked up to her for as long as I can remember.
I remember Caroline Myss talking about times when massive losses occur. I am sorry your wondrous sister had to go through this in her nuclear family, and I feel for all her loved ones far and wide. As always, your writing brings depth and difficulty to life in a sensitive, loving manner. I love the sisterhood you and Tree Tree share. OMGosh, I want to hug you both! Happy Birthday Tree Tree!!!
It makes me wonder if there are areas of my life that I am still holding on to and not grieving
I'm going to guess yes - especially around dis-enfranchised grief ... those losses that are not publicly acknowledged or socially validated.

Your birthday wishes have been passed on to Teresa! And I am so grateful for the sisterhood I share with her - and with you! xoxo
