Cool days and cool nights. Trees are mostly leafed out, leaves already darkening in color, and obscuring the view as they blow across my windows. I’m still writing upstairs in my aerie that reminds me of a treehouse I had as a child, a dogwood tree outside our dining room where I read, wrote, drew, and felt invisible. Paul Karasik told me a story about a piece of music he couldn’t get out of his head. He heard “The Dream Passes by the Windows” a Ukrainian lullaby, sung at a Martha’s Vineyard…

One of my patients is a sweet Great Pyrenees–Bernese mountain dog mix named Sol. His owner recently told me that Sol‘s brother had died suddenly from cancer. “Is there any way you can check Sol?” they asked.

Folks are often surprised to learn that pets with cancer can have completely…

Enjoy running.” “Come on,” he said. “It’ll be fun.” My idea of fun was waiting in line at Back Door Donuts, talking to…

Heard on Main Street: Kids in the back seat cause accidents. Accidents in the back seat cause kids. I was sorry my kids could not be here for Mother’s Day, but very pleased when my son came home for his birthday last weekend.

I’ve only been off-Island once since before COVID, and for various reasons…
