My younger sister Linda has become a symbol of endurance and resistance for me -- akin to the attitudes and actions we must all have in these insane days of the Trump "ascendancy."
Linda has endured a near-death experience, yet another debilitating attack of cellulitis, and pain incomprehensible to someone as "lucky" as I have been. She still faces a long healing time (hopefully not as long as last time -- 2 and a half years), incredible medical bills, and the continuing and ever-present worry that it could happen again. Just like Trump's careful planning!
