Happy Birthday, Lauren, unpack this tomorrow! I hope your healing is going well, and I hope you and Xavier share some good treats to celebrate. One day at a time, and tomorrow is for you to enjoy. All the best.
Happy early birthday my friend. This year will be better, I know it. Your bones will heal and you will again join the rest of us walking wounded. And the right employment, one that values your talents, will find you. Your attitude is perfect though, we have so much to be grateful for in our relatively peaceful, healthy lives.
I almost shared my birthday with my father, we were 2 days apart. My mother, in her zeal for efficiency, always had us share the day, cake, and celebration. As a kid I resented the intrusion on my special day, and wasn’t a great sport about it. Maturity makes me ashamed I was that bratty kid.
My synagogue has in its memorial prayer book a special section for the parent who wasn’t who we needed them to be as we mourn them.
I hope your birthday and this upcoming year is wonderful.

That’s incredible about your synagogue.
Happy birthday, lucky Lauren. We're lucky to read your work. Take care! ~RD
Bloody hell. Thank you for reminding us we are all the walking wounded. Or not-dead-yet. Not sure which is better, if either. But thank you.
Happy Birthday! Yeah, healing your bones, good luck; love this. Thanks for writing this.
Thank you!
