I am not sure what that is right now, but I am going to do everything I can to stay on this earth. There are three reasons for me staying - Addi, Christi, and the plan I am supposed to undertake. That is it. It really is amazing that I feel I have let this situation go, and what happens will happen, but I am not going to let this take control over me. Period..."<br /><br />And boy did he ever! It's amazing to me the determination, fight, and amazing attitude that he put out for over three and a half years when the experts projected three to four months. Bo, I know you're looking down on all of us now and see that we wish the time had been longer for our own selfish reasons. But we all have experienced that "plan" you mentioned. You accomplished the goal, even if you didn't know that was it. You touched us all... profoundly, and changed all our lives for ever.

We are all here for you...always, not just for the life of this particular blog.<br /><br />Remember, Bo's journey, YOUR journey has not ended it has just moved into another stage. His journey on earth is now moved forward by you and Addi. He lives on in her and in your love for him. I am reminded of that famous movie quote from Sam in Ghost... The love that is inside, you take it with you... He has taken his love of everyone with him and you will carry yours for him inside you as you continue down the path.<br /><br />For now, this blog is a part of that journey and we all walk by your side. Maybe someday you will switch paths and create a new blog about the new adventures of the life you have yet to imagine. Just remember that there are many many many of us who care about you and will continue to be interested in how you are all doing and what comes next.

I can't imagine how you must feel, and it hurts me to know you're out there, hurting. <br /><br />I don't want to keep intruding with my own memories, but maybe I can share just one more that came to me, and hope it makes you smile.<br /><br />So when Bo and I were in high school, I had a teacher I really hated, who hated me equally. I sat right by the door, so I could be as close to the escape route as possible. Bo knew how miserable that class made me, and used to walk by every day and just stand in the hall making faces at me until i started cracking up laughing-- i would try to remain completely expressionless as long as possible, but could never keep from busting out laughing for more than maybe 30 seconds. Then Bo would dart away down the hall so the teacher never knew why I just started laughing-- I'm sure people thought I was possessed! but I didn't care because every day, it never got old and still made me laugh and made the class bearable, and I always, always looked forward to the moment, although I knew it was only going to get me in trouble. Some days he really mixed it up, bringing other people with him, and making them do weird faces or dance steps or whatever, too... I never knew quite what was going to happen, but i always knew it would destroy my ability to remain serious.<br /><br />...So innocent to think about now, and such a tiny little thing in retrospect, but just another example in so many people are remembering of Bo's uncanny ability to lighten up every situation, and always want to make people around him happy.<br /><br />I hope you're doing ok, Christi. I know how strong you are, and have been, and I pray for your continued strength, and for your pain to be made easier, somehow.<br /><br />Love to you and Addi. Please keep writing as long as you want to write. We're all here, either way, but do whatever you need to do, for you.Catie Rubensteinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29833162.post-36583253711775327052009-12-10T01:16:58.976-05:002009-12-10T01:16:58.976-05:00Dear Christi and Addi,
I have written to you so ma...Dear Christi and Addi,<br />I have written to you so many times in the past few days but I have erased them because I am so lost as what to say to you.<br />I did not get to meet Bo and you but I read the blog while you guys were at Duke and I feel like I know you.<br />Joe sent the link to the blog after he met you at Duke. I read many of them and I especially love the Fire Truck blog because it takes a child to induce laughter when the adults are so caught up in the fear of the unknown.<br />My sister, Marilyn told me that Addi said the Residence Inn is her summer home and I when I look at her pictures I can hear her say it. Christi as long as you want to blog there will be readers because we will want to know how Bo's girls are doing.<br />My thoughts are with you.<br />JeanneAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02638549637391022847noreply@blogger.com
