Meryl and John, wow you are brave, it can't have been easy going there on that day 

Lovely photos

And you also discovered some little treasures: what Heath had for breakfast, that he was always there first, and that the waiter did not know he was an actor. It must have been one of his safe havens, where he enjoyed being treated like a normal human being.

Your tribute was beautiful. And in a place Heath knew and had lived in - in some ways, way better than Karrakatta. So don't worry Meryl  and I don't doubt a minute he was sitting on your shoulder, with a broad smile. Why so serious

Thank kew, Meryl and John, for taking us along on you pilgrimage.  May he rest in peace, may the peace around his doorstep be the indication he is.

Je crains que tu doives entendre - oui c'est un subjonctif 

Ah, maintenant je comprends! Merci Mouk.

Thank you, Bel--I must say Merci Mouk also! 

Ah, maintenant je comprend! Merci Mouk. 

Dear Effen-Elle: as for the subjunctif, as now a real-life aphasic (no joke), I'm lucky to figure out the subjunctive in English. Interestingly, during today's speech therapy "conversation" session (with a fabulous, brilliant therapist, a Columbia U. grad student named Mel), I couldn't remember (or say) "Mona Lisa," but I could say "La Jaconde!" Mel said, "So! You may be aphasic in English, but not in French!"

Hah. As if.

Meryl and I had a wonderful breakfast--so cozy. The sad part was later. Oh, well.

Anyway--Je vous aime--tout!

Oy!

Or, one could just say <<o la la, la la, la la>> with a little moue, non?

Dear John, I never knew the word "aphasic" til it happened to you.  All I can say is thank God you were so abundantly blessed with communication skills before your stroke, to serve you now.  I imagine in some ways having had that might make it harder in some ways now, but easier in others. 

But, wow I missed you when you weren't on BetterMost, and I'm SO glad you're back, and sharing your wonderful jmmgallagherness with us again. 

Tu DOIVES savoir combien je t'aime.
