Happy Easter, Happy Passover
Jacob is in Philadelphia, visiting Ellie, so we had a quiet holiday. They went up to New York this weekend and saw Spamalot, the Monte Python musical, on Broadway. I can't wait to hear about it.
Today, Easter sunday, celebration of rebirth, is the two year anniversary of Jacob's diagnosis, and one year since the funeral of Michael Gourdin, a comrade who went through chemo at the same time Jacob did, and then BMT. Tuesday would have been the 8th birthday of another friend from Packard, Ben Diffenderfer, who died last August. We ache for their families and treasure the miracle of having Jacob here on this planet with us.
May this new season bring you all joy and many blessings!
