Honour Your Father And Your Mother

She can remember events from decades ago, and yet, she forgets what she has eaten the night before. No longer able to perceive the world around her clearly and distinctly, her perception of time has been thrown into a sort of limbo, where nothing remains the same, and chronologically her memories are misplaced. My mother, Lucia, has been dedicating every day of her life to Maria for over eight years. A mother and daughter relationship that has seemingly reversed itself, my mother is devoting every single day to my grandmother, she is pure and unselfish with her love. Dedicating your life to caring for someone day after day, hour after hour is a complicated and taxing dynamic, which I've observed with a mixture of perplexity and admiration.
