222

 

My 13-year-old son Rory died February 22, 2005.

 

On March 30, 2005, I wrote the following in my Journal:

 

“Last night, 

I woke up, 

looked at my watch 

and it was 2:22 ~ 

it startled me 

and I wondered if I had seen it correctly, 

so I checked again.  

2:22.  

Rory died on 2.22.  

It felt like a sign of connection.  

I have been asking you to come thru ~ 

to connect with me - 

perhaps you did?  

Thank you sweetie, please do it again.”

 

Just 36 days earlier

my most amazing 13-year-old son Rory 

died on 2-22-05 

following a 6-month odyssey with brian cancer.  

Rory loved numbers, 

and black holes 

and parallel universes 

and time travel 

and Albert Einstein.  

It was clear to me, 

even then, 

that his work here was complete.  

So, he left his physical body 

and was on to the next adventure.

 

About a week later, 

I woke up again.  

In the middle of the night.  

I checked my watch.  

2:22.  

With a huge smile 

and a knowing in my heart, 

I said, “I get it.  

I really do.  

We will connect with each other through the numbers “222.”

 

And we have.  

Over and over again, 

in ways that continue

almost 9 years later 

to astound, 

surprise 

and delight me.

 

That first New Year’s Eve, 

after Rory died, 

I took Sean to Disney World.  

To escape.  

To get away.  

To create new memories.  

To have fun. 

Not only would it be our first holiday season without Rory physically present, 

but that New Year’s Day was the 7th anniversary of my wife Trici’s death. 

And January 2nd 

would have been my daughter Erin’s 17th birthday, 

had she lived.   

It’s a complicated time of year for us.

 

I booked our room at one of the many, many Disney hotel properties.  

I can’t say I was 100% surprised 

when the man at the desk handed me my room key and said, 

“Welcome to Disney World, Mr. Zuba.  

You’ll be in Room 222.”  

Rory was with us.  

Always.  

Even at Disney.

 

I have seen 222 everywhere.  

 On the sides of buses, 

on billboards, 

on license plates.  

It’s even tattooed on Maroon 5’s Adam Levine’s left arm.

 

About a year and a half ago I began to wonder.  

Okay, 

I connect with Rory through the numbers “222,” 

but what about Erin and Trici?  

Where are they in all of this?  

 

And then it came to me.

 

Erin’s birthday is January 2.

 

Trici’s birthday is May 22.

 

I believe that the three of them are home.  

In the presence of the Divine, 

always.  

It is not just Rory present in 222.  

It’s all three of them. 

Together.  

And when I have completed the work I came to do.

I’ll return home.  

I’ll join them.

 

And so will you.

 

Now you know.

 

If my NEW WAY of "doing grief" resonates with you, I'd love to work with you one-on-one. If you are in the Rockford, Illinois area we can do that in person, otherwise, I am having great success coaching people all over the world via Skype, FaceTime or Facebook Chat. Email me at tomzuba@aol.com if you would like to take the next step on your grief journey. We can discuss details and schedule a coaching session.

  • Насосная станция АКВАРОБОТ М 24-15Н –

    Автоматические насосные станции водоснабжения «АКВАРОБОТ М» — на основе погружных вибрационных насосов «UNIPUMP БАВЛЕНЕЦ» (Россия), с гидроаккумулятором емкостью 5 или 24 л, предназначены для подачи чистой холодной воды из открытых источников, накопительных резервуаров, колодцев и скважин (диаметром более 100 мм).

    Для автономного водоснабжения индивидуальных зданий, коттеджей, дачных домов, для организации полива огородов, садовых участков, небольших фермерских хозяйств.

    Температура перекачиваемой воды до +35°С, общее количество механических примесей в воде — не более 100 г/м3, размер примесей — не более 1 мм.

    Насосные станции автоматического водоснабжения серии «АКВАРОБОТ М» надежны в эксплуатации, просто и удобно монтируются, насос может длительное время находиться в водоеме погруженным в воду. При желании, насос легко демонтировать из источника воды и опять погрузить в воду.

    При соблюдении условий эксплуатации вибрационные насосы способны работать в течение многих лет, не требует смазки и заливки водой, может быть включен сразу после погружения в воду.

    Устройство и принцип работы станции

    Насосная станция «АКВАРОБОТ М» состоит из следующих основных узлов:

    Погружного вибрационного электронасоса «БАВЛЕНЕЦ». Гидроаккумулятора. Устройства «PM/5-3W» (объединяющего реле давления, манометр, штуцер). Обратного клапана.

    Погружной вибрационный электронасос состоит из 3-х основных узлов: ярма, вибратора и основания. В основании имеются отверстия, прикрытые резиновым клапаном. На выходной патрубок с помощью хомута крепится шланг. Подача воды осуществляется из напорной камеры, ограниченной резиновым клапаном и поршнем. В результате вибрационных колебаний электромагнитного привода поршень совершает возвратно-поступательное движение и выталкивает под напором воду из выходного патрубка.

    Шланг соединяет выходной патрубок насоса с блоком управления станцией, включающим гидроаккумулятор и устройство «PM/5-3W».

    Устройство «PM/5-3W» cмонтированно непосредственно на гироаккумуляторе соответствующего объема. Это устройство автоматически включает насос, когда давление в водопроводной сети ниже порогового уровня (заводская установка — 1,5 атм) и выключает насос, когда давление в водопроводной сети превышает верхний порог (заводская установка — 3 атм).

    Давление включения насоса регулируется в пределах от 1 атм до 2,5 атм. Давление выключения насоса регулируется в пределах от 1,8 атм до 4,5 атм. Гидроаккумулятор поддерживает давление в водопроводной сети в заданных пределах.

    Открываем кран — вода поступает потребителю из гидроаккумулятора. По мере расходования воды из гидроаккумулятора давление в водопроводной сети падает. Когда давление упадет ниже порога включения, устройство управления включает насос. Насос подает воду потребителю. Кран закрываем, насос продолжает некоторое время работать, пополняя запас воды в гидроаккумуляторе. По мере наполнения гидроаккумулятора давление в водопроводной сети возрастает. Когда давление достигнет порога выключения, устройство управления выключает насос.

    Монтаж и ввод в эксплуатацию

    Для ввода в эксплуатацию насосных станций «АКВАРОБОТ М» необходимо:

    Подсоединить станцию к водопроводной сети потребителя. Для этого присоединить выход устройства «PM/5-3W» (внутренняя резьба 1") к основной трубе системы водоснабжения потребителя, объединяющей все точки водоразбора. Соединить выходной патрубок насоса с обратным клапаном, установленным на устройстве «PM/5-3W». Для этого предпочтительно использовать гибкие пластиковые шланги диаметром 20 мм. Для облегчения надевания конец шланга можно размягчить в горячей воде. Концы шланга затяните хомутами. Для обеспечения плотной затяжки рекомендуем подложить полоску, вырезанную из шланга. Присоединять насос к жестким трубам следует только через гибкий шланг длиной не менее 2 метров. Опустить насос в источник воды. Руководствуйтесь Схемой установки насоса в водоем. Глубина погружения насоса не должна превышать 3 метров. Расстояние от гидроаккумулятора до зеркала воды в водоеме по вертикали не должно превышать 30 метров. Расстояние от дна водоема должно быть не меньше 30 см. Для крепления насоса в водоеме привяжите подвеску (3) (входит в комплект станции) к проушине насоса. Другой конец подвески закрепите на перекладине (7), как показано на схеме установки насоса в водоем. При погружении насоса в скважину, наденьте на насос защитное кольцо (9). Скрепите кабель (5), шланг (6) и подвеску связками (2) через промежутки 1 – 2 метра; Подключите станцию к источнику электропитания с напряжением 220 В. Станция готова к работе.

    Насос не должен работать более 2-х часов непрерывно.
    После 2 часов непрерывной работы сделайте перерыв на 15 – 20 минут.

    Не допускается замерзание воды в станции.
    В зимний период, если существует опасность замерзания воды, необходимо полностью слить воду из станции и всей системы водоснабжения.
