<p>Marie, I'm sorry to hear that you lost your Dad at such a young age. Both the main characters in Dancing with Statues have lost a parent at a young age, but in very different circumstances. I agree with you about the image of life as a dance. On her deathbed, Miguel's mother writes to him about the importance of really living your life whilst you can. It's important to get out there and dance the dance!</p>

Maith thu, Caroline/ Congrats to you in being a published author.</p>

<p>I had travelled from Dun na nGall to Dublin, and was at St. Mary's Church at the time of the bombing, lighting candles as it was the Catholic Feast of the Assumption. I was travelling on a free schedule, and since Tyrone is my ancestral home, very well could have been there in Omagh. The bombing was a thought-provoking tragic event, hopefully.</p>
