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... )

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.

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.

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.
