Damn Good Journalism Chelsea Edgar is an absolutely amazing writer. Reading her [ Mother Load, March 10], I felt this crazy swirl of things: guilty relief that my pandemic life has been relatively stable; anger about how even in Vermont we haven t figured out how to make life not suck for everyone; a rush of empathy and affection for these three brave, strong, nearly broken women. Her writing made it all the way into my heart. That s a mark of damn good journalism. Thank you. Jason Van Driesche
Another Mother Chelsea Edgar s article was outstanding and heartbreaking [ Mother Load, March 10]. All during the months last year, I felt so fortunate to be 59 years old with young motherhood behind me. That s because I knew how awful it would have been to be a young mother dealing with it.
