I purchased your book and found it to be quite helpful in my own preparations for Everest this 2013 season. I write a blog of my own at http://www.mauroeverest.blogspot.com you can check out if you like. I have a son attending college in Chicago and plan to visit him the weekend of 3/15/13. I would like to buy you lunch and do a short interview for my blog if you are open to that. Please email me.

Were you not afraid? I was just reading these. Congratulations! Jack London would have been proud of you

At my old job – this was a passion of my exboss, Mr. Sheridan. I think Everest is the only summit he has yet to conquer – he tries to do it every year. I don’t know if he has since it’s been about three years since I was at that job, but there was this one website where we could watch the different teams and see footage and stuff – this site called aplineascents.com

This was a truly breathtaking account. I loved every sentence. I often wonder what makes men do these kinds of dangerous, death defying things – and I still have yet to figure it out, but for some reason – it’s still glorious to hear about. I kind of makes me think about my old boss and gives me a sense of what he would have felt during a successful attempt. Okay, I’ll stop now because I seem kind of chatty for a stranger, right? But that’s just how I am.

I don’t even know you and I am very proud of you! I’ve not often been the kind of person who lives my dream so I love it when someone else actually does. I hope this is just one of many, many more dreams you will make a reality! And, Sveta – you. go, girl! I like how you supported and encouraged your man’s dream and gave him the strength and blessing to make it all the way to the top. That’s what it’s all about.

Congratulations, again – Yura Sherpa! And WOAH! A massive congrats to Apa Sherpa for his 19th summit! I think that pretty much qualifies for a Nobel Peace Prize. God only knows the dangers that man has faced over and over again to make sure other people’s dreams come true. Please tell him that there is a chubby black girl in Chicago who is in AWE of him at this moment.

God bless. Make it home safe on June 2. I’ll be praying for you. Please come back with some Everest snow, too! :) I love snow…specially gourmet snow.

Твой отчет прочли десятки родных и друзей и наш телефон расплавлялся от поздравительных звонков в твой адрес, где кроме отличной оценки в альпинизме все отметили прекрасный литепатурный стиль, а мама и Аденский потребовали смену проффесии на писательскую. А ведь действительно ты молодец! Целуем и счастливого возвращения. Мама Папа

I am glad you are safe and back down. I can’t wait to see some pictures. I wish you had some of those electric warmers for me when we were on Hunter!
