This song came out when Mom was dying. I played it for her and she held her child as it played. Trying to comfort and help her deal with trying to say everything I was trying to say in this up and down place I was in at the time. So many times we as a family have been ripped apart by the illness and all the complications that go along with all the issues of just trying to be a normal family. Trying to be there for each other and forgiving such hard words spoken or things done or not done because someones brain is sick. Then needing them to be ur Mom and then watching them slip away.... It was our time to say the words that so needed to be spoken. This song let me say things that my heart was screaming and that the world for the many prejudices that exist with mental illness ... Didnt want to hear. Love and forgiveness are so powerful. And in the end a lot of things surprised even me .... This song still stirs up emotion and takes me back to that place of not wanting to let go but the life that produced yours is still slipping away. I know Mom is at peace now but we still miss her in this house. Heres that song Mom... I just heard it today and cried... And felt your hand in mine. I am so glad we got to share that time. What a life huh? I love you!
