Family Resemblance

  1. Mrs A has a cold. A pretty nasty one, fever nearly 40c.

    She's been to the doc, it's not influenza, just one hell of a cold, he gave her some meds to help out.

    So yeah, she's taking the day off.

    But when I got home from work, she was asleep in bed. She heard me come in, her eyes opened in a kind of unfocused way and...

    ...she looked

    just

    like

    her mother

    did...

    ...towards the end, her brain squeezed by tumors and pummeled by surgeries, her consciousness slowly sublimating into oblivion.

    That was not a good feeling.

    She's got a cold. You said it yourself. But I get that just after your recent loss things would be stirred up. *huggs*

    Yuck. I'm sorry. I hope she feels better soon.

    Yeah, I know it's just a cold, but the resemblance was terrifying. The moment went on just a shade too long...

    And thanks to both of you.
