Thanks Alice. Did it help to have your cat at school? You were ahead of the times in having a "support animal." And hmmm....second grade. I can't even remember the teacher's name. Just as well.
Hi Allison! It was so unnerving when Dave twice burst into tears...but fascinating to track down the cause. And your use of the phrase "survival skill" is so apt. Thanks for reading!
This is so powerful it gave me the chills. It's incredible the lengths we go to to protect ourselves. Second grade was bad for me too, I had to bring my cat to school in a cage, poor thing.
Powerful, Lea… the force of our survival skills honed at such a young age. And to peel back that layer and learn from that moment all these years later. So beautiful

I’m overwhelmed with feeling. I cry at Over the Rainbow too. It’s heartbreaking no matter who you are.
