Don't take my ongoing silence as a disinterest in writing. I've actually been doing quite a bit of it - just not here (if you don't count the two drafts I started... and gave up on.)
I've been spending the last week or so writing a couple of very long letters on Sam's behalf to the MRC. One letter is giving a "brief" recap of what he's been doing for the last year, what it looks like he will be doing for the summer, and hopefully laying some groundwork for the early fall and beyond.
The second letter was in response to comments I got back from the first letter - which then resulted in a long followup phone conversation.
In addition, I've been making other phone calls - not only to the
MRC, but also to SSI to clarify his standing with them. And in between
those two, I've been starting to look look into the possibility of available ADA transportation in our area. I haven't made much headway with that, but after I get some of this other stuff in motion, and after I have a meeting with Sam and his Job Coach next week, that's pretty much next on my list.
Unless something else comes up.
All of this is a part of that same process* I've written about too many times before - of feeling my way along that dark corridor, hoping I'm heading in the right direction, and hoping, as I stumble along, that I'm finding the right doors.
So, there you have it. Now, aren't you glad I haven't written?

No, not glad.
Some of us - your band of supporters and admirers (well, me, anyway) - are standing on the sidelines cheering you on. It's good to hear from you again.
Thanks Ben... as always. Always good to hear from you as well.
