It’s a dream come true to have a piece on a subject matter so near and dear to my heart in print in ⁦@NYTmag⁩ 💗

[Casey Mulligan Walsh @CMulliganWalsh]

I had no idea when I wrote this piece, "Still," about the death of my beautiful son that it would live forever (or what seems like it). So now Eric and his big energy, his light, live on too. 🩷 Thanks so much to Short Reads for giving it another round.

Honored that a piece I wrote made it to NYTimes. It's about how my mom's stroke changed my relationship to time, science, and nature. What a privilege to honor my mom in Modern Love.
Below is a gift link. Let me know your thoughts🙏🏼

I think the most vulnerable part of being a memoirist is not people rejecting your work, it’s people misunderstanding it. When put in front of the wrong audience who won’t treat it with care & consideration. Don’t read the comments, still the best advice.

Almost 10 months ago, I suddenly lost vision in one eye. It became one of the scariest experiences of my life. It also made me think about sight in a new way, and consider youth, middle age, and mortality. I wrote about it for @TIME .
