I think my grief is hard: my grief is a stroll in park when it comes to this family.
Jed Roberts cruised the streets of Las Vegas in a limousine with his Mum, Dad and sister Lia by his side for his 13th Birthday (I think it was the year). Due to the lack of connection with my own parents at that time and still now, I was always constantly surprised and inspired but the unity of this family, and what they shared together, raw but honest.
Lia, Jed's sister especially a fantastic personality, this girl has spunk and determination, her mothers traits I am sure.
And they are still not spared from loss and unexpected disaster of the worst illness, but even at this time, she emailed me and I am blessed!! I shall cherish this email as my small daily happening, because Debbie is still in my life and this alone to me is impressive: don't you think? The small things!
I found a couple of articles about Jed and his battle:
Meeting Metallica
Chilly plunge in memory of Jed
Inspired by this man, yes I am!! Jed I hope you meet Daryl wherever you are, as I know together you will form a team so very indestructible!!
To Dean, Debbie and Lia... I think of you often, but cannot even begin to imagine the gap in your lives.
I love you and wish I could spend more time with you.
