This is Centre Pompidou. Let me tell you why I love it. My German friend Julia Reschop took me here for the first time with Jack. We met Julia at Smith and she was our wedding photographer and very bossy and actually, very fun. This was 20 some years ago. She was a...
I think this top photo is the winningest photo of the trip. That’s Rose at the front gate of Versailles. OK. I have to give a little tourist tip for Versailles. You know we’re here during the crush of tourist season. When we arrived at Versailles, the line...
If I were a man, and I lived in the 18th century, and I were carved out of marble and stuck in a palace, I might look just … like … this.

Deirdre Timmons
An accomplished writer and filmmaker, Deirdre Timmons is a native Northwesterner who leads a busy life between working and spending time with her family. In the spring of 2013, Deirdre was caring for her mother with Alzheimer’s in addition to her normal routine. So when she began feeling tired and forgetful, she chalked it up to her busy schedule, age, and possible early symptoms of Alzheimer’s. It wasn’t long after that she began experiencing regular dizziness, lack of concentration, unexplained weight loss, and extensive bruising. This combination of symptoms seemed odd, so Deirdre sought the advice of her doctor and subsequently began physical therapy for dizziness. When the symptoms worsened, she pursued further investigation.
After MRIs, x-rays, blood tests, a CAT scan, and a brain biopsy, her brain surgeon diagnosed Deirdre with a malignant medulloblastoma brain tumor. Her prognosis: one month to live. That was five years ago.
