Why do I mention 21st birthdays today? May 6th 2017 would be Henry's 21st Birthday. Henry's dad was my production manager for 2 years. I knew Henry as an adorable boy that would arrive at the theatre with his mom. They would come down to have dinner with dad during long rehearsal days.
I left that job, and years later met up with a mutual coworker in the tiny world that is theatre. He let me know that Henry had been diagnosed with brain cancer. A few years late I learned that this beautiful boy was no longer with us.
When Patrick was first diagnosed I called Terry. He was the first person to tell me to look for good signs and he gave me hope.
