At the end of the month, I will see and touch my only child for the first time in over a year. I’m not as excited as you might think. I’m not even as excited as I might think. I have actually become used to communing with her on the phone. We rarely use FaceTime or any other visual aid. We just talk for an hour or more every few days. Some weeks, we talk every day. That’s what we do.
Really appreciate how you speak about loss and loneliness. Seek ye the living!
