Thank you for this story. So very thoughtful of all of the dynamics in a family - there is more to love and marriage than the relationship between two people. The evident grief of a mother who has lost her child - and how hard it would be for her to accept another woman raising her grandchildren - that was so very understandable, sad, true and honest. You did a WONDERFUL job with all of the characters!

The man-to-man talk between the Professor and his son was also so honest, caring and very true to character. Your story has developed so naturally I already find myself mourning when it ends! Another GREAT job!
