Years ago Phil Donohue had a show with a mother and her son that was conceived from rape. I remember the son looking at his mother with so much love that I could only wish my kids would some day look at me that way
Mom was 92 in June of this year. Until this year, she retained all her faculties and even now is physically strong. She taught sixth grade for decades, teaching thousands of kids to love books. She used to read to them from several favorite books. When she had to take up residence at an assisted living residency, she continued to read to fellow residents who just loved it! If any of her past students from Fairfax or Arlington, Virgina read this, they will remeber whom it was that read The Secret Garden to them.
