MY MOM MATTERS

On May 6th, 2011 my sweet Mom passed away. Her name was Marilyn and this blog is about the beautiful person she was and how I formed an extraordinary relationship with her. It's about how she suffered from Schizophrenia and how I found her after 25 years when she was discharged from the hospital. My Mom had to start a new life after it had been shattered by her illness and tragic treatment in the hospital in the 1960's. This blog is about illness, relationships, but mostly love and loss.
