November third is coming up! How can it be almost two years since that dreadful, life destroying morning when Andrew breached Bobst’s non-existent security, and leapt to his death from the tenth floor of that wretched library? That cold, eery, spooky, hungry library! “If there were no witnesses, how do you know that my son [...]

What with the extra 9/11-related-security slowing down getting into Manhattan, and the gentle, oh so gentle, sprinkle from the sky while setting up – the sound check was complete and the tables and chairs decked and ready… well, a little later than planned. But we were ready, willing and eager to Get The Wellness going. [...]

Andrew would have graduated today. After long years of study, his work would have paid off, today. It has been raining heavily for several days and today is no exception. The grounds at Yankee stadium, where the graduation, or commencement as it is called, will take place, must be soaking wet, like my nightdress is [...]

I remember reading somewhere, that someone went to see the movie Titanic eighty times, in the hope perhaps, that the next time around the story would have had a happy ending. I know that feeling. I know it. I know it. I regularly “watch” Andrew’s last days hoping that something/someone had intervened and he wouldn’t [...]

On November 3rd. 2009, my then 20 year-old son, Andrew Williamson-Noble, an East Asian Studies junior at NYU’s College of Arts & Science, jumped to his death from the 10th floor of NYU’s Bobst library. Since that day, I have received messages and emails from students, mainly from NYU, offering support whilst revealing their own [...]

I am still thinking about what happened at Bobst last week. For those of you who might not know, Bobst is NYU (New York University) main library in Washington Square Park, Manhattan. I am… I don’t even know what polite word to use… yes … I got it; I am appalled, ie:mad as hell, that [...]

It has been confirmed that the attempted suicide did happen as described in the message left me by an NYU student. I am trying to ascertain if is true or not, but as per the following comment left on the blog early this morning, It seems that there was an attempted suicide from the 10th [...]

I saw a therapist yesterday. She was highly recommended and those who recommended her were right, I liked her. Quite frankly I’ve never seen the point of a therapist. Even now I am not entirely sure how it works, although… you know… there’s something to be said about being able to… talk. Why are you [...]

I just realized that next week is Thanksgiving! And I have also realized that this year I am not scared of it. Last year, literally, one moment I was thinking about getting a particular sweet potato with calvados recipe from a friend, because Andrew loved sweet potatoes, and the next Andrew was dead! While I [...]

Silence is what one strives for, to find peace. Silence is the treasure that yogis seek, for only in silence, can the truth be known. And I’ve tramped the dusty roads of India, I have traveled with my loving teacher, Amma, God’s love in a human body. Sitting at her feet I have inhaled the [...]
