I will look at the house your grew up in tomorrow when I go for a walk. That is so cool! It is so nice to know that you grew up here, just a few blocks from where I am. This is a beautiful part of Chicago. It has very good vibes. Thank you for your comments here, Bob. Fran

Nora, I could not imagine not being here. I am 100% determined to be here for Toni, helping her get off the ventilator. I know it is a long journey, but I am here, literally holding her hand. In a sense she has to do this alone, but in another sense, she is NOT alone. She has all of us, an enormous army of family love and community love holding her up, encouraging her, cheering her on, believing in her body’s capacity to heal completely.
