EMAIL DETAILS

H: think you should think about having someone other than you call this guy back on your behalf- as a way to be responsive but not put you on the spot right away, and collect some additional intel. From there we can think about next steps. Happy to help in any way.

I wanted to mention, however, that I think that the story of your family’s resilience in the face of tragedy has the potential to make a lasting, powerful impact as a book (and to help thousands of Americans struggling with grief in their own lives). At the appropriate juncture, I would love to speak with you about this thought—my contact information is below.
