Losing her was like 'the heart being ripped out of the chest' of our entire family. Our mam played so many different roles in our lives. She was a wife, mother, sister, daughter, mother-in-law and grandmother. She was pretty cool at all of them.

Chris Price played for the Kansas City Royals in the late 1990s. But when the sisters reach for memories of their dad, he's often driving off on one of his custom Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Morgan remembers watching from the laundry room. Frankie is closer, in the garage.

There is a particular form of blindness that afflicts the fortunate-a blindness to the quiet miracles of ordinary existence. We walk through our days surrounded by what a patient once called "unexperienced happiness," moving through gifts we no longer recognize as gifts, breathing blessings we've forgotten are blessings. It often takes a brush with loss to restore our sight. This is a meditation that can perhaps grant us more mindfulness than hundreds of seminars. It's about the obvious that we sometimes simply no longer see.

For as long as I can remember, I've been the kind of person who plans everything.

If I could organize my world tightly enough, maybe nothing bad would happen.

These issues are not pathologies. They are predictable, universal core vulnerabilities shaped by the inherent complexities of adoption. Understanding these vulnerabilities helps us move beyond simplistic narratives of adoption as "beautiful," " grateful,"""" or "rescuing," and instead see adoption for what it truly is: a layered experience in which love and loss coexist throughout a lifetime.

We typically believe that the person who is "dumped" during a breakup suffers so much more than the person ending the relationship (the dumper). We think the person who is dumped does not want the relationship to be over, wants to try and fix it, keep it going, stay in contact-anything but end it.

When Ibrox turns on its own like this, there's a temptation to put in the earplugs and don the crash helmet. It ain't pretty. It's as visceral as it gets; loud and vicious, words coming like blades, capable of cutting their target in half.

The Beacon Hill broker cherishes family gatherings and finds solace beside the lake, reflecting on the loss of children from the past, longing for connection.

"I had enough money but not enough time." That's what my stepmom said, multiple times through her two-decade journey with metastatic breast cancer.
