I couldn't bring myself to respond to this amazing post, paying tribute to our beloved sister Lucia, until now. My relationship with this unexpected grief has been like a pendulum swinging back and forth. I don't want to ignore it, yet when it comes, it is so strong that I feel as if a wave has taken me out to sea. We three sisters worked hard at maintaining our relationships especially given that we were physically far away from each other. Elizabeth, your tribute to Lucia reminds me just how important it was to stay connected, ensure we squeezed in a sister's trip into our busy lives, and do our best to keep our sister bond as strong as we could. I will keep the words in this post close to my heart and read it often as a source of comfort and as a reminder that we still are three sisters tied together for life.
