I honestly don't think I expected a response even back then. I sort of wrote you on auto-pilot. Please don't feel bad that you can't respond these days. With the release of the book, you're moving far beyond being "YouTube Famous". The important thing is that you're making a huge positive impact on our culture.
Please don't spread yourself too thin. Yes, you need to promote the book etc., but the world needs you to stay healthy and be around a long, long time.

It might make a cool Memento mori, like an urn that was created alongside the cremains which would eventually fill it?

A crematorium would make an awesome kiln. Have you ever thought of taking up pottery?

Hello, Caitlin. You probably don't remember me, but I messaged you on Facebook back in March, about an hour after unexpectedly losing my wife to a heart attack at 55. I was sitting there dazed, a 1000 things running through my head, when I remembered how we enjoyed watching your videos together. I felt lost, angry, scared, and a dozen other emotions. For some reason, I reached out to you, even though you didn’t know us. I'm curious.
Has that sort of thing been happening to you more as you've become more well known?
You responded very kindly, advising me to allow myself to feel any and every emotion that came my way. It’s been.... rough, very rough, but I’m still here and working through it. I’ve become sort of a grief-hermit, rarely leaving my house because I’m having a hard time speaking with people, but I’m working on that. I’m even crying as I type this. I just wanted to thank you again for your words of kindness to a stranger at the most vulnerable and painful moment of his life. It helped. Bless you, and the book is wonderful. My wife would have loved it.
