Untitled<\/h2>\n

by Deborah Lane<\/em><\/h5>\n

 <\/p>\n

My name is Deborah Lane. I am a widow, I live on my farm. My mother Areta also lives with me. She was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, and it terrified her, as a former nurse, being aware of what would be happening to herself. We spent this summer voyaging through time, to talk, remember, reminiscing over our commingled lives. We didn’t travel geographically. We travelled through time to distant shores, to Europe, to places we have lived and loved, laughed and cried. I wouldn’t have missed this journey for any amount of treasure.
