Ben generously digitized all our family photos from the time Paul was born on December 31, 1971, so I spent the last hour or so looking through them in iPhoto. So many wonderful memories and so many wonderful pictures.
Here is my favorite - taken in 1991 at our beach by the late Mary Pat Dorr - a couple of years before Paul got sick with bipolar disorder. It was a truly beautiful afternoon.

I came across your story and plan to read more blog posts from you. I don't know enough information, but I saw that it said your son developed bipolar disorder. I know how difficult a disorder that is. My family friends have it and I probably have it coupled with borderline personality disorder. Thankfully I am in therapy and on medications.
I will keep your son in my thoughts. I know how difficult mood problems can be.

Thank you Kathy, Jeff, and Sebastian for coming by Choices. I appreciate your lovely words and the quote by Mattie - a very wise young man.
My mother's day turned out lovely - being with Ben and Marissa is always a joy.
