I love the picture you painted of Max and J as children…..grilled cheese sandwiches and all. Whatever conspired in the universe for you to find each other now is a gift, a good thing. I wish you grace & strength whenever I read your posts.

Beautiful photograph, beautiful words, beautiful and messy life. In a way, he continues on. Your words, his voice, everyone who knew him.

‘They will take their own path in the end, regardless of what you do or don’t do.’ You manage to break my heart every so often with your goddamn pursuit of the truth. Much love and respect to you, sister. Even when I don’t say it.

I am lost for words… this is such a sweet, inspiring story. It is amazing how through you we all get touched by little pieces of Max’s life <3. His awesomeness lives on and will for years and years and years and years to come. Thank you.

A lovely heartwarming story and I’m so glad that you connected!
Helen, I by now lost both my parents, and it can be devastating but eventually the pain scars over. If at all possible, try to get some joy from the present time when you still have them around, don’t “advance” your sorrow. Sadly, there will be quite enough of it later. Don’t wait for some incredible connection – just spend some time with them and tell them that you love them. One of my very few regrets in life is that I did not tell my mother that I love her often enough. She knew, I’m sure, but still…
