Two Heathers

Our nearest Heather is now a priest; I couldn’t wrench myself into yet another kink in the Adam Family Summer Tour to go, but Si held up the family colors. Lots of cheers and neighborly well-wishing to her, the new interim Episcopal chaplain at Northwestern.

Further away, Heather “Dooce” Armstrong has won our admiration and our hearts for her wit, her writing, and for her family life. One of the last things I read before the I closed my TiBook on the portico of the Atheneum Friday was her message that she was going to check into the psychiatric ward of a nearby hospital. We (and lots of other people) have been aching with her and praying for her, and this morning I caught an update that she passed on to Jon. Things are getting better, for which we offer up cheers and well-wishes to her too, and to Jon and Leta and Chuck.
