Ten years ago the Boston Bombing rocked the world. It rocked mine. Fear was all encompassing and we are indelibly changed, but my faith in the good in humanity was also validated. Today I reflect on my gratitude to so many. #BostonMarathon #BostonStrong

Ten years ago today my Dad suffered an aortic aneurysm - beginning the toughest two weeks of my life. He survived thanks to two strangers who we never knew but remain indebted to, and extraordinary care at #GGH. I am #grateful each time we have seen the twinkle in his eye since.
