The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing
diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing
money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it
in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common
thread that bound us all together. ~ Erma Bombeck

of our brains as they do in the spiraling chains of knowledge hidden in every cell
of our bodies. ~ Shirley Abbott

in search of what he needs, and
