Our Son Also Rises




Orion's twenty-second birthday!

His girlfriend Jen came up from Swarthmore College, he baked himself a cake, Sally put out a Harvey basket for each of them. Last night Orion and Jen had dinner together at Toscana on Charles. Staying out of their way, Sally and I went out to eat at 75 Chestnut. Then we went to see Jane Eyre while they went back to the condo to make the chocolate cake.

But that was all after the four of us walked in the pouring rain to mail off his lease and deposit on the new apartment in Ann Arbor. A new lease on life in a way.

It is home to western Mass for us this afternoon for a week before returning to Boston for the final cycle of chemotherapy and two weeks of recovery.
