DAY 9
SEPTEMBER 22
Today is my niece´s birthday. Carmen, turns 13. I called to wish
her a happy birthday. She was so excited about her birthday. Her
voice was cheerful and giggly as we spoke. Today, Carmen, celebrated
becoming a teenager with her girlfriends. Saturday, there would be
a big family celebration. I am looking forward to that....
When I hung up the phone, I thought... and now, to Marian´s
funeral. Every muscle in my body tensed up as I picked up my purse
and went out the door.
