When I was 19 my brother disappeared. He was 27. He just left his apartment. He didn't move. My mother went there and it looked like he'd just walked away. I tried for years at different times to find him. We thought maybe he had died. In 2003 I finally found him in a nursing home several states away. He was 60, in a wheelchair and very debilitated from a serious stroke. I knew him immediately. We hugged and cried. It was one of the happiest days of my life. Although he had great difficulty communicating, we were able to reconnect easily and I saw him regularly until his sudden death a few years ago. He had left because of a rift with our mother. He loved me and the empty hole in my heart was filled. So, you see, Cassie's loss is probably very deep in her heart. Maybe buried by her experience but surely still there.<br />Sorry to get so maudlin.<br />Rosie DeeRosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12851198467161002487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6899529711007360224.post-83001272453977103952018-01-10T08:45:38.974-05:002018-01-10T08:45:38.974-05:00I can understand Cassie's disinterest in reach...I can understand Cassie's disinterest in reaching out to her brother's children. Her family on the river is such an rich and integral part of her life, that I don't think she feels the need.<br /><br />Hugs From Ella Ellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04236225732606002291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6899529711007360224.post-29097801841189372242018-01-10T00:40:20.764-05:002018-01-10T00:40:20.764-05:00I am really enjoying learning more about your char...I am really enjoying learning more about your characters PK.
