“I wrote this story because I needed to, when, so many years after losing my sister, I found myself daily, hourly sometimes, being touched by life in some way that brought up her "missing-ness." Like an invisible shard in my heart, it doesn't show when you look at me, but there it sits, in the center of my chest, a shard now turned to crystal that casts its light and color over my life. Inside that crystal, Kathy is still with me. I know I am not alone in this experience.”
Maureen Callahan Smith

“This kind of prayer was about staying present, keeping her company in this place of helplessness and uncertainty. We cried and we chuckled. We told each other stories and drank tea from china cups. All that was prayer, too. And that was how we navigated this dangerous, terrifying path.”
Maureen Callahan Smith, Grace Street: A Sister's Memoir of Grief & Gratitude
