Anyone familiar with the story of how Neil Peart lost his daughter, Selena, and then his wife Jackie in a few short months in the late 90s will be heartened by this item from his June News, Weather & Sports Blog:

Quote At the same time, under that same marine layer, my wife Carrie was seven months pregnant. [Pause for sharp intake of breath and shiver of apprehension.] Our baby was growing and kicking, protected and insulated in its own oceanic fluid, its own marine layer. The anxious (not to say terrified) father kind of wished the baby could stay there, safe from harm, and not have to embark upon a life of menace and potential tragedy. He had lost before, and probably couldn’t stand to lose again. People kept saying it was going to be all right, and he tried to keep telling himself that. Even in the June Gloom.


Neil remarried in 2000 to Carrie Nuttall who is a photographer.
