Rusty Hillier, RIP
In: In Memoriam
18 Oct 2006
My ex-husband died last night, after a long fight with diabetes and other ailments including alcoholism, which I think he finally beat. But it was too late. Our son, Robby, is doing okay. We just picked up Rusty’s things and now I have to head back to the hills, where I’ve been staying to avoid paint fumes from apartment renovations in my building. I’ll write more when I get back.
About this blog
I'm not really famous. In case you were wondering. But I tried. I once believed that fame makes you real - a perversion of "The Velveteen Rabbit" theme that love makes you real. Guess I equated fame with love. Sad. You can read more about that here.
