Please consider this. Carla and her husband Mark are trying to raise enough money to donate their book, "My Love Will Follow You There: calming imagery for children facing death", to other parents facing the death of a child. Please read their story and consider donating.

It took a long time after the deaths of my husband and youngest daughter - to decide that it was up to me to live in the most productive way I can. I do this to honor them and because they can't. Even when life isn't great - it's precious. #grief #widow #childloss #lovelife

If you're struggling with trying to find the right words to say to a grieving person - please remember that there are no "right" words. A loving embrace can often comfort more, speak more and convey more love than most words. #Grief

I missed all of your tweets the last 3 weeks - and I haven't been tweeting. First I was on vacation - then my dear Mom suddenly died June 20. Busy taking care of her affairs. Finding myself in intense grief storms again - never, ever gets easier and each one is different #Grief

In our lives we plant ourselves in different locations and situations and we grow in good & bad times. Each interaction is like the wind carrying your seed to someone else' garden and hopefully their seed to yours - mutually affecting each others lives and futures. #life #love

"If sites like Amazon publicly claim that AI allows them to tailor product offerings to consumers, while telling authors there is nothing that can be done to prevent brand jacking...then that disconnect is going to be a centerpiece of future legal action." ditchwalk.com/2023/08/10/aut…
