David, what beautiful notes between two special friends. She clearly trusted you. She knew. I am grateful for your respect for and care of each other. Amazing Nis. Thank you for sharing this most recent chapter in her journey with all of us. Clear sighted, wise, funny and brave as always. Heartbreaking.

Thank you, David. Your experience over the last 20 years mirrors mine; messages sent, nothing returned. I was not as lucky as you. You broke down the, what do I call it, curtain, wall. I am envious. But in your post, you have answered so many of the questions I had. Thank you. May she rest in peace.
