For Denise Scioli · 7d ago
I keep coming back to this story today, I don't know why it's hit me so hard for someone I never knew existed until this morning. My aunt was a special ed teacher for almost thirty years and I grew up watching her come home exhausted and still sit down at the kitchen table to draw with us, and reading that Denise Scioli taught art therapy to kids in Round Rock for all those decades just brought that whole feeling back. She was looking for a wedding ring in the river, that detail won't leave me. Seventy years old and still out there in the water with friends doing something she loved. Sending whatever I can to her husband and to Sulekha. Sorry, I'm rambling, I just didn't expect this to land the way it did.
