“I watched her take her last breath. Felt her hand go limp when she was gone. Listened to the beep when she flatlined. The loss was indescribable, and I only knew her for two months. Imagine how it would feel to lose the woman you loved for thirty-five years? Who gave you a son who became a man. A girl who turned into a woman with a zero-tolerance policy for bullshit. Imagine that.”
