    Politico again tweets @michaelkruse⁩’s profile of me & again this bile bubbles up. If your only response is to mock my appearance, I win. I’m 1 year younger than Mom when she died. Every day is a gift & your hate can’t touch me. God bless & may joy find you in the year ahead.pic.twitter.com/Xf8T54Dsqp

        To be clear, I have no grievance with @michaelkruse. He worked hard on this profile, which included multiple texts and calls to fact-check his reporting.https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/12/21/connie-schultz-sherrod-brown-donald-trump-democratic-primary-2020-223416 …

        Hi. Me again, but only to thank all of you who posted such kind, and often funny, responses. Sometimes Twitter is a nice place, indeed. Particularly moving: the sub-thread by those of us who are nearing, or have outlived, the age at which a parent died. It sits with us, always.

        Actually this is just for @ConnieSchultz - your best ever quote "There's no whining on the yacht." Brilliant! Wise! Hilarious! Timely! I am certain you have many others but this one I'll never forget.

        Beverly, that is long-cherished advice from Kate Medina, my beloved editor at Random House. She said it during a particularly grueling edit of my 2007 book, "...and His Lovely Wife." It has become my mantra.

        I not with you on much politically but this is garbage. People who have lost their parents prematurely measure everything against this metric. I bet you'd write a great column on that topic.

        Yes my dad died at 53 when I was 28. After a while I realized I was I instinctively measuring everything against age 53, like a new lense through which you see everything in life. I suspect it's a common thing but it's not talked about much.

        You’re the first person I’ve seen say this out loud, but I’d guess many of us in similar situations have similar thinking (my dad died at age 50 when I was 25; I’m 43 now and it boggles my mind thinking how short his life was).

        Exactly. My dad had a heart transplant at 49 and died 2 weeks after he turned 60. Those two events are my benchmarks

        Yep. same here. you said it eloquently. I am the same exact age when my mom died, leaving behind 5 kids ranging to age 18 to 7. I wish I had the luxury of havinv my biggest concern be my weight or what other ppl think of me. Shine on, my dear friend.

        My dad died of prostate cancer at 58. At 62 I had successful surgery for the same thing. You’re a terrific writer, Connie, and I think you would make a wonderful First Lady.

        I breathed a sigh of relief when I passed age 52, the age my mother was when she died. it's odd being past it, though, almost as though a unit of measurement has been taken away from me.
