Howard is a doctor, marathon runner and author. He has written two non-fiction books, My Father’s Compass (2007) and Raft (2009). Carrots and Jaffas (2014) is his first novel. His latest novel is A Threefold Cord (Hybrid, 2107)
Beautifully written, Howard. I hope it wakes people up to the needs of the helpers that we all depend on. It was stories in the paper, such as the one Lucy experienced, where someone essentially good, does something disastrous, that led me to write Border Line.

Howard, I read it and it also brought me to tears. How many others are suffering that way?
I hope Lucy is ok, or at least better now.

I think she is Sally
Of course so many others are untreated, unrecognised, dying – or simply dying to die
Thank you for writing
See you Friday night?

Thank you for your response
She has located excellent help in her region and she is resolved to pursue it
Through trying to end her life she discovered the imperishability of her son’s love
That helps too
But the wounds our guardians suffer on our behalf are too deep to heal perfectly, I suspect
That’s the gap
That’s how the the light gets in but also the dark
