Friends, my mom passed away this evening. Thank you so much for all of your thoughts, prayers, and love. It is a thin veil and I am glad that I was able to be with her as she passed peacefully through it. She was an amazing human with some moxie and depth. She loved people… Park next to the hospital where my mom is…good to walk a bit… #pensive #thankful #ducks My mom is in hospice care now…it’s a strange place to be in…waiting, talking without a response, fidgeting on my phone, lining up things back home and here, and pondering…I have counseled and sat with folks who are dying and who have been caregivers…but when it’s your mom…or someone who’s invested so much in you, it’s different…and I’m giving myself a lot of grace as I walk through this time with mom and with others…I do have a deeper respect for caregivers now…and thankful for nurses, aids, and doctors…and for my friends, family, and congregation…as well as my mom’s friends…many who I’ve known since childhood… #hospice #mom #cancer #hospital #love #thoughts Late night last night at the hospital…hard night…not much sleep…short “My Old Kentucky Home” run this morning…now back to the hospital for the day… Was in Cincy for a couple of days, morning cross training at the YMCA…now back in the ‘Ville with my mom. #cancer #mom #crosstraining #runninglife #sciatic #stopasianhate #runningrev #runfree #neighborhoodrun #runhappy #justrun 🏃‍♂️ #saytheirnames #garminrunning #run #running #runnersofinstagram #runningmotivation #ridinwithbiden #ruach #flow #blm #therapyrun #workingtogetbacktoboston #bostonmarathon #asics #asicsrunning #asicsrunners #nikerunning @thenorthface @asics @brooksrunning @nikerunning @garmin_running asics.running @world_running_addict Strange reading for class while sitting in a hospital while my mom sleeps…sometimes even talking in her sleep…which is both sad and funny… #mom #cancer #doctoralstudentlife #reading #hospitallife @pittsburghseminary Heading back to Cincy this evening, and then back to L’ville on Monday…we have moved my mom into palliative care, so back and forth for a while..but grateful for this time with her and the grace, compassion, love, and flexibility of friends, family, and my congregation…good to get out for another short “My Old Kentucky Home” run this am…pleasant country road running this am…good to pause and notice life all around me and the road ahead..now back to the hospital for the day… #hospitalroom #sitting #talking #listening #inandoutofconsciousness #mom #cancer Another short My Old Kentucky Home run this am…another hot and muggy (and overcast) country road running this am…now back to the hospital for my mom and meetings with medical and palliative care folks…
