for Caleb's mother
Do you remember Caleb Potter? The young man who had the skateboard accident while we were in Wellfleet?
Caleb has rallied and had setbacks.
He is several surgeries closer to recovery, although what kind of recovery can be expected is yet to be determined.
His mother has a blog and reports daily on the events in Wellfleet, where the town has come together in extraordinary ways to support him, and on his health.
The mother of three boys, with Caleb sounding a bit like Oldest, she inspires me daily.
Yesterday she wrote:
We are all where we are supposed to be at this very moment.
And I thought she had written it just for me.
Isn't funny how other people's lives can teach so much?
Of course one can read anything they like in someone else's words, but Caleb's mother is dealing with so much and I admire her grace.
We continue to hold the Potter family in our hearts, and, next summer when we return to Wellfleet, we'll be sure to watch for Caleb so we can shake his hand.

I will try to take those words to heart...
Thank you for sharing this.
I mentioned Caleb's accident to my skateboarder. One mistake, in one short moment, can deeply affect you (and others) for so much longer. I will give him the update. Thank you for it.
A good way to prepare the heart before going to Liturgy.
It is so relieving to hear he's better and to have a blog to follow his recovery.
Thank you. This is why I admire you.
