Like many people, I often felt like I just didn’t fit on the family tree. I never quite fit the mold, was always a bit different, more of a rebel, more liberal, more creative, just “more” in so many ways. And yet with the week I just had with my mom, with a fall and a broken arm sending her slip-sliding unbelievably fast into dementia to the point of not recognizing me the other morning, the thought of family and the solidity of roots of a family tree have suddenly become incredibly important to me. My mom is now safely ensconced in memory care where they can properly care for her, but my heart is broken at the thought that the mom I’ve known and loved is mostly if not totally gone. I’d happily embrace being the colorful witchy bitch — or is it the bitchy witch? — to have my family back, but that will never be. The scary fact is that now I’m the matriarch of my own clan… hopefully it will be a strong, fruitful tree that can bend with the storms of life… As my mom always said, life goes on, and it’s up to us to make it special.
