My brother reports that his symptoms are worsening, which leads one to imagine frightening things. I really feel bad for his suffering, and dread the grimmer thoughts that knock a little louder at the door today.
He's been very brave about such a sobering health concern, and I'm proud of him. I didn't doubt his fortitude necessarily, but I am gently surprised at the stuff he's made of.
He's been described by others in our unusual clan as "stoic," a description I can't disagree with. It's not a word I would have chosen though, as it implies an aloofness or avoidance of the gravity involved, and my brother hasn't been blind to the stakes. He's been straightforward.
I admire his courage.
I went to Tourmaline yesterday. Javier @quantumprimordial invited me to
come out and schedules aligned and it was a great after-work session. It
was closing out and lots of board surfers to avoid but there was plenty of
fun to be had. Share the stoke.
