Author's e-books - death. Page - 12
Today was my grandfather's birthday. He would have been 94, and knowing him, still enjoying life to its fullest. After hearing one of his favorite songs on the radio, my mind drifted back to a conversation we had just before Alzheimer's took control of that dear, sweet man. Come sit with me by the old swimming hole, as I revisit that summer of 1997 in this soliloquy, of sorts.
Recently widowed, Vera Bradshaw finds herself going through the motions of life with the painful memory of her husband's death at the forefront of her thoughts. Every moment, every breath is tinged with Jesse's presence and she does not know how to find peace. In a moment of desperation, she finds that she can see him on certain nights in a place that is exclusively special to them.
