Mom is gone.

[Raven]

49. I will tell you this: I want my children

to remember me vibrant or at least capable of living life. I do not want my children to remember me in pain and in the last death throes. This is what I thought about my own parents but I did not get the gift of having that and my last images of them are not what they should be to give their lives peace or the memories I should have carried away with me. Anyway, none of us knows how we are going to die but I hope my kids see me leave this earth with a good memory.
