Another photo of Mom and me that I don’t recall ever seeing before. I already miss you so much, Maa. You were the best mom. I know everyone thinks their mom is the best, but you truly were.
Thanks to my Uncle John for sharing this.

Found this picture online while trying to figure out how one great
uncle was related to us. It’s of my mom’s mom and maternal grandmother. My Grandma Noah is on the left. My Granny Thelma Mayhall is on the right. Grandma Noah apparently has amazing red hair—and as you can see lots of it.

I instantly start balling just like I did back in January of 2021 when I thought that we were going to lose Mom to a perforated bowel. I heard it back then in the shower and I did that sink down crying in the shower thing that’s a trope in movies and television. Corny but true. Here I am today:

She’ll have 24 hour help and palliative care. If she refuses meds or dialysis, we’ll call the hospice folks.
Tl;dr: Mom is going home for the last time today. Please keep her in your thoughts. 🧵3/3

I just had a guy threaten to throw his water bottle at me if I didn’t stop running for my bus. I kept running, but it was for the wrong bus. He should have thrown it. 🤷🏻♂️
