When she got into bed, Mom said “I’m sorry” – I’m not quite sure for what. I answered “I’m sorry” back – I’m not quite sure for what for. It broke my heart even as I knew it meant that the part of her that I had feared had shut down for good was back. How lucky am I?

“Spark”is good ?.
Yes, it is : )
Oh, that makes me want to cry too. If you do make it to Maine with your Mom, please let me know. I would love to come see her. You are doing such a great job. Don’ t beat yourself up with worry. You are wonderful with her and I’ll bet she knows it.
Thank you Ann, I hope you are well. I would love to see you.
