As a mother who loves words, I loved reading this - with tears. How many points in life are so full of “what if”? A book I recently discovered recounts a different kind of journey post-9/11. Three young mothers - Muslim, Christian, Jew - share beliefs throughout THE FAITH CLUB - determined to do their bit for a more tolerant world. The quote comes from an Episcopalian priest to the Christian at a point when she confesses to doubts about her assumed-to-date beliefs. The priest responds with an encouraging smile: “The opposite of faith is not doubt, it’s certainty.” I value this releasing word. I do know that daily love and care was richly extended by both of you to Javid and to so many of us through those months of hope - so mixed up with uncertainty. Peace, MomHelen

Beautiful post, Tony. I’m glad you’re willing to write about how those final days of Javid’s life unfolded. It does me good to read your words.
