Susan,
Lying in bed tonight I couldn't sleep thinking about Mickey. All I could think about was his wonderful smile while he stayed at my house this summer. His laugh, his charm, his ability to communicate to me on such a personal level that even I was almost convinced when he said, "Can't you see the resemblance between us?...You could pass for my son." I love that man. As I would go to bed each night I would hurt so bad that he had to suffer so long. I have so much relief knowing he can "breathe" freely without bottled oxygen. God is good. He won't let us suffer more than we can. We can all rejoice knowing that everyday he is better off than we are now. I will treasure the long visits we had for the rest of my life. As an artist, he was one of the few people I could relate to. We had an understanding and as far as I'm concerned...we still do. I'll never forget the night we stayed up and drew on a sketchpad. I drew something and he would turn my drawing upside down and copy it exactly. He would tell me of the time you bought him the paint set and canvass and how he just sat and looked at it and never actually painted. I can totally relate to that. Remember my cloud painting? He is in my Cloud now forever. God is good.
I love you,
Ted
