My goodness! What a long time it has been since I was able to write anything down. I could not figure out how to post until I finally got Kim (my husband) to sit down with me today and go through this step-by-step. Told you I was computer illiterate! :))
I decided that I really need to make some comments about what is on the web regarding my brother, Mark. I have read Jim Greenhill's posts about his book and the many comments folks are making on that. Then I found another site set up as a memorial to Mark. I have to say that one irritated me, and I am not sure why yet. I'll have to explore those emotions.
I have been doing a couple of interviews for the Fort Myers tv stations on "10 Years Later" and a lot of emotional stuff has been dredged up. I wonder why so many people feel like they have some sort of ownership of Mark's life? These are folks who have not really even tried to reach us , his family, in all these years. How about a letter to us expressing sympathy? Sharing their memories of Mark and what he may have meant to them?
Add all of those emotions to the emotions of watching what my son is going through as he battles for his life - well, some days are just harder than others.
