“Sometimes at night, when I was alone, or when I was at the pool, in the quiet stillness underwater, my mind would go to that place. To the hospital, to the people there. It was as if my heart could travel, over the miles, over the months that had passed, and I was back with her. Olivia”
Cylin Busby, Blink Once

“Call it fate, call it synchronicity: you never know what your actions are going to lead to, or the possibilities they can cause. There is a ripple effect to every action you take, intended or not.”
Cylin Busby, The Year We Disappeared: A Father - Daughter Memoir

“What difference does a little rain matter, since you’ll be getting wet anyhow?”
Cylin Busby, The Year We Disappeared: A Father - Daughter Memoir
