"Libraries are brothels for the mind. Which means that librarians are the madams, greeting punters, understanding their strange tastes and needs, and pimping their books." Guy Browning (The Guardian column, www.guardian.co.uk 18 October 2003)
When he went into the nursing home many years ago, from a nasty stroke. I grieved.
It was a short sad rough grieving. After all, he was still here; but it was just a different him.
At the time I thought (hoped? feared?) it would take the edge off the hurt and grieving later, when he went away.
But I was so so so wrong.
Can't say more without sounding trite.
So here's a photo.

most things sound trite in the face of grief, but I wish you strength, love and time to let your grief take it's path.
