My mother told me once that a cousin of mine told her she was obsessed with the fear of death that she would spend hours worrying about how she, her husband, or her children could die. I thought, what a terrible thing to have to live with and it just broke my heart. Personally, I don’t think about when/if/…

When we have visitors coming out to the facility, part of my directions include “drive past the chicken farm and over the train tracks, then turn…
