1 year later...
I had a very long thread to write about the year long trek some of us have been on to heal from the monorail accident, and its been a long road to travel.
But, i am not going to dredge up painful memories for myself, my family, or my friends. I just want to thank all of you that have been their for us... and a VERY BIG thank you to Bru and her support of us down here durring our time of pain.
Bru.. to you I want to say Thank You and that i am sorry for not staying in contact like i had said i would, but tghis past few months have been challenging not only for me, but also my wife who witnessed the accident... I will do better about this over this summer.
To the rest of you like MAPO, who has done what they have done here localy.. Thank You!
The Doctor
ps... If I have missed anyone ( which i know i have... Thank you also... )

Re: 1 year later...
Thanks, Doc. I understand that it's been really rough for all of you- didn't want to push or overstep or remind you of the hardest parts- but I'm still around if and when you need me.
It's been a rough patch for me lately too in a different way- new rounds of medical testing the past month, no answers, lots of pain. That's why I've been scarce.
But I have been thinking every day even more than usual (and I do think of it and you all every day- I can't go into my kitchen and see the monorails and not think of it) of you all as the date approaches. A large part of me wishes I could just get on a plane and come back down for a few days in the coming month, even if I didn't get to see you guys. I guess I'm homesick. You don't know how many times I've looked at airfares the past few days.
anyway- just wanted to say thank you for your thank you. You really all gave more to me than I ever could have given myself.
You and Wallaby and everybody else I got to meet down there last year will always have such a special place in my heart- I just wish we could've met under any other circumstances.
I meant it when I told you all that I won't ever forget.
hugs,
bru
PS Someday I WILL collect on that parade viewing you two owe me.

Re: 1 year later...
Lots of Good Thoughts for Bru to feel better, and you Monorail Folks who are approaching that sad anniversary.
Hope you can have a little time set aside to say your prayers and anything else you need to express either alone or with friends.

Re: 1 year later...
As I walked to Harbor Point the DL Monorail passed overhead so swift & silent. My heart sank in sandness. I knew this day would come. Have been counting the sad months. CMs at DLR are with all & thinking of all WDW CMs this early a.m. WDW CMs are in my prayers. Austin will be remembered by those his soul touched & those who hold him as a brother in The Disney CM Family.
