Terrycloth

Terrycloth passed away very early on Monday morning, August 21st, a little after midnight, I think. I had just left his hospital room for the night. I knew it was coming and had flown out early Saturday morning, so I was able to see him before he passed.

I don't know if anyone reads my blog doesn't already know this from elsewhere. If this is how you found out, I'm very sorry.

I want to write so much more. I don't want to write at all. Just thinking about this makes me cry again. No one is expecting me to write about Terry but me. Maybe it's all right to wait.

I can pretend to be okay for really long stretches of time now, like whole days, even. Convincingly enough to fool myself.

It's not fair.
