Self-Discovery

On the 24 of October 2009 at 8:24PM, Tom Kelly died of Cardiac Arrest. To me,

that meant that I was a 16-year-old girl going through the most difficult and amazing part

of my life, without a father. It also now means that I have spent almost a year in my life

learning, changing, and experiencing so many things that I never would have

acknowledge or wanted to, if my father had not died. Death involves a complete change

in the status of a living entity-the loss of being. In my case, it also involved a complete

change in a living entity-the transformation of my being.

As a young teenager living in an upper class neighborhood and attending a private

school, I had few worries in my life. My life was stable, safe, standard. I carried with me

an accepted, innate security. It was like a feeling from the inside that you do not realize

you ever had until you lose it. It is a comfort that allowed me to endure the evil and

wicked potential that sometimes consumes the world. However, the night my dad passed,

I lost the safety and insecurity slammed into me.

The one day I came across some information on Cardiac Arrest and the effects it

has on the body. I thought that if I began to better understand what happened to my

father, maybe I could regain the control and recover the comfort I had lost. Yet learning

about heart problems and heart failure was unaccommodating. They were just facts and

statistics so I went deeper into the aspects of death. Then one day a connection shocked

and awed me; the breakdown process and the steps the body went through in death,

fortuitously paralleled the crazy emotional part of dying that was overtaking me.

Ultimately death occurs with the cessation of heartbeat, movement and brain

activity; the body stops working. With the realization that my dad might die that night, it

was as if everything had stopped working and was spiraling out of control. My dad died

and my world stopped and from then on, I have been living another life; I was rebirthed

in death. My life was a peaceful sailboat in the ocean, violently tossed into a storm. I

frantically and recklessly try to gain control of the powerful force but in the end the storm

passes and I am lost and shattered.

Then there is the calm after the storm. The body goes from ceasing to work, to

slowly beginning to cool. The temperature of the immediate environment primarily

influences the cooling that takes place. After a while, there were so many friends and

family around trying to help, that I calmed down and tried to pretend that everything was

going back to normal. However, not everything goes back to normal, it just gets harder.

The body’s skeletal muscles and tissues began to stiffen. The facts and emotions were

getting me straight on. I had no father. In one day, I had gone from worrying about how I

was going to make it through Physics, to worrying how my family was going to make it

through life, let alone a year.

After loosing shape and temperature, the body looses color. The red and blue

discoloration of the body, which results from the settling of the blood, begins. Now I was

changing and my life was changing. The idea of being fatherless, of living my life with a

single parent, was settling in and although I was not happy with it, I could deal with it.

After the body has stopped most activity, cooled, stiffened, and changed color, it goes

through Putrefaction and decomposes. I was moving on and letting the hurt and anger fall

away. The devastation and bitterness was breaking down and now I could begin to form a

new self and new life.

As easy as the short-term process I went through is to categorize, the long-term

changes that enveloped me were most subtle and less self-controlled. The short-term

effects helped me deal with my emotions but the long-term effects helped me deal with

my life. I was and ma so scared to be what I should be. In school, in my swimming and in

my character, I should be such a better and bigger person, but I hold myself back to

where I feel safe. I hold myself back unintentionally and people think I am brave and that

I do such amazing things. However, there is so much more that I am capable of and as

long as I know that in my heart, I am lying to myself. I feel as if my dad knew that also

and that I was and am lying to him. It is as if I was driving past a bad accident and I

wanted to forget about it and put it behind me but it was so traumatic and affecting that it

stuck with me. I cannot forget who we both know I can be.

I have lived and entire year fatherless. Recently I read Laura Blumfeld’s

‘Revenge’, and one of the characters said something that summed up what I have felt for

the past year, “I have been robbed of this word: daddy.” In being robbed of a father, I

have gained frightening and valuable insight. I am not the person I want to be and I will

not be that person for many years. I want to effect change and not be a product of it. I

want to be able to look beyond my world and create something better for someone else.

What formwill that take? I don’t know the method or the mean, but I know that desire-

and complacency will not be an option. If I only live to dream and fail to act, my life will

not make a difference to me or the world around me. I will not forget who I can be.

Recommendation for Michelle Gregory

I write to recommend Michelle Gregory whom I have taught both as a sophomore and this year in AP English. Her growth and maturity are remarkable. Her curious mind, congenial personality, and athletic ability make her someone who will enjoy, benefit from, and contribute to further study at the collegiate level. Michelle is an excellent English student. While somewhat quiet in class, if she is called upon, she always has an astute comment or keen observation. She is an excellent peer reviewer and gives feedback to her classmates in a constructive and kind manner. What’s more, Michelle’s papers are always well organized and often contain original ideas that she thoughtfully and carefully supports. One of my favorites was a paper where she compared Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew and the movie 10 Thins I Hate About You. She clearly had a lot of fun with the paper and came up with some terrific analyses. Michelle is not just intelligent; she is also personal and warm. In her character and interactions with others she is also a standout student here at St. Anthony’s. Her relational skills are adept and reveal a young woman who cares for others, has an empathic heart, and uses her knack for negotiating life’s problems to help others. People love to talk with Michelle because she listens carefully and wisely sees that which underlies human behavior and emotions. She’s insightful, honest, concerned, and affable. There is something true and humble and genuine about Michelle that puts others at ease and wins her friends and respect. In addition to her academic acuity and attractive personal qualities, Michelle’s athletic ability is a standout among her peers. She is a stellar and inspirational swimmer. And despite her huge commitment to the sport, nothing is ever turned in late and she is always conscientious about making up work or doing work early if swimming conflicts with school. She is an extremely responsible student. I recommend Michelle wholeheartedly and believe that she is ready to prosper from the rigors of university level work and interaction. Sincerely, Bernadette Smith English Department St. Anthony’s

Michelle came to introduction to College Math having had pre-calculus as a sophomore. She could have been successful in calculus as a junior but I don't thnk she had the time to devote to the class that it would have required. She is good in math. she always comes prepared and is serious and attentive in class. She found ICM easy, earning A's, in spite of a busy athletic schedule and some personal problems - and she never used her busy schedule as an excuse to delay taking tests or turning in homework. Michelle is quietly behaved in class. She always had an answer when called upon; and she was always right. She is mature and responsible. She would never think of blaming someone else for her problems. She is not a leader in the math classroom because she is so quiet, but her peers do respect her, so leadership is probably a quality she can develop. She is always willing to assist another student who is having difficulty, but is not pushy about it. I am happy to recommend her to your college/university.
