Still here. Still missing him.
Today I pulled pulled down the wall, reclaimed my humanity: when I stand on two feet, call me Carolyn.
About Me
- Carolyn Hill
- When I first started on Blogger, my handle was "Ratty", maintaining anonymity so that in my "Rat in the Walls" blog I could write about my brother's fatal illness without giving away his identity. Under that pseudonym, I could voice things I couldn't elsewhere. Rats thrive in the dark. ::: Now, five years after his death in 2008, I'm coming out of the walls and reclaiming my humanity.

Brian called me Bible Man. I am remembering him and thinking of his family as I prepare to do the ice bucket challenge. Blessings to you and your family.
I think about Brian a lot, esp lately. I worked closely with him at EMC Documentum for years. He was great to work with, I enjoyed our lunches together and just chatting about writing and the world. He was thoughtful, intelligent, funny, I miss him. I hope you're doing well, grief is a tough process, esp with such a bright spark like Brian.
I've also been challenged to do the ice bucket challenge, but I want to make a donation to the kids' scholarship funds or something like that. I've always wanted to do something for this family and pouring water over my head isn't enough. Miss your brother.
I miss him too, I was an avid reader of his blog and he included mine in his duly noted.
