we’ve just launched into our summer season of ultimate. and it still seems somewhat strange, somewhat surreal. its been almost 5 months since we lost Kat tragically. Last season, we wore the patch on our jerseys, to remember and honour her, and we still wear those same jerseys this season.
Oddly, the place I now work, experienced an eerily similar tragedy a few years ago, and you can still see how talking about it still hurts them a little. it hurts me just the same. Strange how the world works.
some weeks, our memories are triggered by a throw or a familiar field or of course injuries. how our team comes together, and seemingly knows too well what the procedures and protocol are.
every week, I look at the roster, I look at my teammates, and I get the feeling, like maybe she’ll be back next week. But she won’t. She’s gone. And all we can do, is remember, and honour, and play hard, and enjoy it, just like she did.
we miss you kat, and we won't forget. disc in.
