‘Home is watching the moon rise over the open, sleeping land and having someone you can call to the window, so you can look together. Home is where you dance with others and dancing is life.’ -@StephenKing

@delatorre glad to hear you’re on the mend! i caught necrotizing pneumonia in february and it almost took me out (37 years old). godspeed on your recovery!
as we cheered and hugged, i remembered that many fans go their whole lives without getting to experience the mountaintop with their team. life is rare and precious, and so is a championship. thanks @GatorsMBK for being special.
these moments don’t happen often. two months ago i was in the hospital fighting for my life. two days ago my sister got married, and tonight i got to watch @GatorsMBK win the national championship with my mom, dad, grandmother and (other) sister.
