“I wonder if my first breath was as soul-stirring to my mother as her last breath was to me”
― 14 Days: A Mother, A Daughter, A Two Week Goodbye
― 14 Days: A Mother, A Daughter, A Two Week Goodbye
“Parent/Child care giving begins in the womb. A mother gently strokes her own belly to soothe her baby’s restlessness, watching what she eats and staying away from anything that might harm her child. When the baby is born, it’s a 24/7 vigil of care—swaddling, diapering, anticipating cries and deciphering what they mean, feeding, cleaning, keeping their child comfortable, happy and healthy.”

“The day the roles reverse is foreign. It’s a clumsy dance of love and responsibility, not wanting to cross any lines of respect. It’s honoring this person who gave their life to you—not to mention literally gave you life—and taking their fragile body in your hands like a newborn, tending to their every need.”
