Today I'm starting the Journey with Mom series, to chronicle and process her recovery.
2025-10-02 Thu
I'm at Duke, playing the waiting game while my mom's in surgery for the tumor on her lower spine.
I've decide to write and share as we go through this journey.
My mom is the most creative person I know.
To honor her creativity and Creation Itself, I will share a few things i find along the way on this journey of recovery.
The first creation is this photograph of her in the early to mid 1970s. Today is the first time I have seen it, a fitting thing since it speaks to her beauty, vibrancy and creativity.
The watercolor painting she's holding in the photo is of a house at Pawley's Island, one of my most favorite places on Earth.
My Uncle George was a wonderful photographer, especially of family portraits, so it was no surprise that he created it.
Creation runs in the family.
