Don’t die.

I can’t fault my mom for falling apart when my dad died but it did mess us up, she withdrew and was lost and stupid for years after, and never really got her mind all back. I was 16 and got kicked out at 17, the other kids got more years of that. But all of us are ok now, and again, I really can’t blame her.

Nothing else really, she wasn’t a motherly kind of mom but never felt neglected or like she was not trying her best.
