If sorrow is a suit, its weight is incalculable. One day he’s gone and you put it on. One day he’s gone and it sews itself inside you. Mourning drapes your skin in its invisible fabric. —John Keene, “Suit” Ombagi, Eddie. "Nairobi Queer Visibilities/Invisibilities and Forms of Queer Ambivalence." In
Grief is such a weight, the weight of those we love and lose, and that we must struggle to lift it off is a testament to the depth of the connection. Sending condolences to you, dearest K’eguro, and gratitude for you sharing your friend’s life with us.
Missing Eddie (or Dr. EOM/Daktari/Boy as he loved me calling him) comes in bouts - some days more intense than others. On those *very* intense days, like today, I come to this article and I'm reminded of how much he meant to other people and the great impact he had. He will not be forgotten. Continue resting in peace my guy. Forever and always!
