It has been one year.
November 28, 2013 is the first anniversary of my father's (Gary Blomgren's) death. It happens to land on Thanksgiving Day this year.
I have been trying to write this thank-you letter for a year now. Even as the shame, guilt, and embarrassment piled up at not being able to complete this task, I just couldn't.
I reminded myself that Dad would be appalled at my lapse of manners. It didn't matter. Every time I sat down to write, the grief was paralyzing. By now, I must be a platinum customer for Kleenex.
