my Mom

 my Mom was a swimmer- swimmer who swam up to 2 house consistently until she vomited. Dove off the highest towers.

she was a pianist- practiced HOURS a day, until she got her teaching degree. Then STOPPED post making family, and kids.

My mom was a NURSE.

My mom was an orthodox practicing Jew. She was definitely RELIGIOUS.

She was athletic- apparently skid and played all kinds of sports, well.

She died at home. She CHOSE to die at home. WITHOUT MORPHINE. So she could think and be present with us until the END of her life.
