Cardiology

I'm thinking that maybe now is the time to resume work on the Cardiology writing project which is based on events just prior to, during, and after Helen's time in the hospital.

I want to do it for her and for our family and, really, for anyone who's been through a similar experience.

Because, over the past few days, I've been looking at some of my old LJ entries, with the "cardiology" tag, and have felt myself both strong enough to do this while still emotionally affected enough to need it.

Maybe, in some ways, it's a substitute for the therapy that I've actually needed but have, for the most part, refused to participate in.

But it's also driven by wanting her to be remembered for who she was and to be recognized for the struggle which she so bravely engaged in--for those in her heart and at her bedside--until the very end...
