Here's a relevant and recent piece of mine. https://medium.com/the-taoist-online/keep-faith-and-hope-of-love-and-light-when-tragedy-strikes-ccc3abe2b307 It's the follow-up to a request for prayers that I wrote about 6 weeks ago for my friend and her adult daughter who was on life support after an acquired brain injury. Tuesday the daughter was transferred to a nursing home type rehab facility. I'm still holding onto hope that her mind will come back. She's breathing on her own but that's about it so far, besides tears, so she must be aware of what has happened to her.

(I was in the middle of commenting on your Muddyum piece when this one hit my email--that's a good piece and I'm heading back there now to finish)
