THE SHOW MUST GO ON
Sniffle sniffe scritch scritch.
We lost our summer houseguest, the delightful Saul Thompson, to Enumclaw yesterday. That’s right. I said, “Enumclaw.”
Saul will be working on The Claw, a teen romance film by my friend Rocky Hessler, for the next several weeks before heading to China for the year. And funnily enough, Rose is en route to England to visit Saul’s family now!
K Saul. Good luck on the set. And come back when you need clean socks! We miss you already.
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.
