My Mother: The Person and the Patient

Episode 9: Finding A Balance


Listen Later

Trigger: 
This episode contains a death penalty against the mother and son accused of killing my mother's baby brother. 
The first part of the episode I share my experience in getting equipment to assist my mother in her day-to-day functions. I explore how not knowing what I needed and where is the best place to get it was difficult. 
In the second half of the episode, I share a chapter about my mother's experience when those accused of killing her brother were executed. The chapter explores the closure her family expected didn't materialize with the death of the accused.  Their pain remained even after what her father viewed as the "city's revenge."
