It’s my brother Ted’s birthday.
When we were young, I’d worry he’d catch up with me. For 11 months out of
the year he’s 2 years younger than me, but between now and Early November
he’s only 1 year younger.
So far, he hasn’t caught up.
I can’t remember the last time I saw him. I think it was at our father’s
funeral 11 years ago. I know I’ve seen my mother a few times since then,
but I don’t remember her dragging him along.
Hard to say as he won’t talk with me even if he is there. So, maybe I’m
just not remembering the shadow behind my mother.
I did send him an eCard. (To my mother’s address as I am not aware of any
electronic address for my brother.) I figure I can do that much for him.
I was his imaginary friend from 1970-1972. So, an eCard seems appropriate.
