Sample text

She was in the office talking to another instructor, Maxine. Both of them knew Sarah who was a regular gym-goer. I went in and told them sobbing all the while. They both coped, especially Maxine who told me her brother had died as a young man and she knew how badly her mother had taken it. I went down to the changing rooms, had a shower and started getting dressed. An acquaintance with whom I had worked years ago in Oxford, started to speak to me. ‘‘Well I have to do something,’’ I answered. ) Although I thought of Sarah non-stop while I was there, I could ‘see’ her in my mind’s eye with her colourful shorts and intense involvement, I wanted to go through this pounding, thumping routine.

But I also feel that Sarah was doing what she loved, something that fulfilled her and what she was passionate about ^ and for however briefly she had realised her dream. The image and recollections I have of Sarah is of a girl very much alive, friendly, determined, caring and loving and that is the picture I keep.
