Still My Sister




My sister Adrienne, who passed away a few months ago, still speaks to me all the time.  Sometimes we communicate via our thoughts, and sometimes we still use my smartphone!

Adrienne was the only person I texted on a regular basis, and I haven’t removed her from my Contacts list – I just added an “RIP” to her name.  As it turns out, her name appears first in my Contacts, and every now and again her last text message pops up on my phone:  “How are you doing?”  This never fails to make me smile, and I always automatically give her a quick update as to what’s happening in my life that day.  This happens once every couple of weeks; the last time was the night I was packing for a two-day NYC visit.  There’s no way that that wasn’t her!

I miss Adrienne a lot.
