Summary

On a Friday afternoon in 2022, Lex was at home, just doing some routine work on her laptop. It seemed like just a normal day. It did not turn out to be normal. In fact, what happened that day started Lex on a journey she never could have predicted. And by the way – the story you’re about to hear does not include any violence. But there is blood. A lot of blood. This is a short documentary that was made by Luke and Jasper (two of Lex and Meg’s sons) about their family and their pet rabbit, Shirley: https://vimeo.com/642010919 If you’d like to Lex’s blog and the amazing photographs she creates, visit https://LexBeach.com Full show notes and pictures for this episode are here: https://WhatWasThatLike.com/134 Want to discuss this episode and other things with thousands of other WWTL listeners?
