Dear Readers,
Greetings, especially to so many new subscribers this week! Mailchimp has let me know that you have signed up and signed on. What to expect? A short note from me giving you my own week in review. And then the most important news of the week from the perspective of what is important to, happens to, and gets written about, women.
Every so often, courtesy of our lunar calendar, Passover and Easter fall on the same weekend. Like many origin stories, there seem to be a lot of explanations for this. Some scientific, some mythic, some in between. If you participate in both celebrations, it makes for one heckuva busy week. That was certainly true for me, along with some little annoyances and big deals, literally.
This week, most importantly and most sadly, I continue to navigate the long-term care-giving needs and short-term hospital system for my Mom. For the many, many of you who know her, she's okay-- but the equation of near-92 + infection = not good. As a dear, dear friend of mine wrote to me, it is a tough moment when the lightbulb goes on and illuminates the fact that dispensing antibiotics can be viewed as a heroic, extraordinary medical effort. Her strength is inspiring, as it has been for as long as I can remember.
Of course I am thinking a lot about my childhood. Lots of memories, combined with thinking of news of the current week makes this the only Mueller Report I have the energy to read about.
Thank you to so many who, each week, send me articles, photos, or videos you think are interesting, important, or amusing here. In weeks like this, Julie, Jules, Nancy, David, David, Joanna, Emily, Kathryn, Adele, Charlie, Nancy, Karen, and so many others.
