HEY!!!
I was just wondering about you the other day.
Very sorry about your dad. It kinda changes the color of the world not to
have a dad when you're used to having one; it did mine, anyway.
Glad you're here.

that single act of seeing him just put my whole life in a different

individual. It's more than "cutting the cord" with birth --what I saw
was my own flesh and blood being no more. And that has given me a sense
of urgency about the life I want to not just live but share with my
loved ones and eventually the world.
My father, btw, was a victim of dementia. He was one of the first
Olympic athletes to represent Puerto Rico and his body was completely
malformed by the disease. Although he was active before this happened
to him, depression, a runaway diabetes and high-blood pressure did him
in. I just want to die like my gypsy great-grandmother --standing.
So between taking care of my body, my mind and my soul, I've been busy.
It's been a good busy --the kind that would make my father proud.
Best,
