Mom with Bertie, Anne and Chris's Spaniel This picture was taken 4 months before Mom died and 7 before Dad died. In the middle of all her pain and discomfort Mom basically said "Fuck it! I want to see my children and grandchildren," (she knew it was possibly for the last time, but we didn't want to know). And so they both flew economy to the UK and carefully managed the cancer, and they were both with my family for a few days and with Chris's family and Andy's family and it wasn't really about saying anything except that when she was alone with me for what I realise now was the last time, I cried and then she comforted me .
