explaining mum to the nurses
Saturday, January 25th, 2014
Nurse Karen: It’s great that you two have such a good relationship with your mother. I envy you. I don’t have that.
Sarah: She is the best mum in the world.
Mum: I don’t know what I did.
Me: You always took our side, even when we were in the wrong.
Sarah: You loved us unconditionally.
Me: You took out a second mortgage so I could go to college overseas.
Mum: Did you know, I’d forgotten about that!
Me: AND THEN YOU FORGOT ABOUT IT.
