The Last Portrait

In September of 2017 my Mom came to visit me for my birthday. She left on June 26, 2018 when metastatic lung cancer took her from this world. Documenting the days of her journey while also overseeing her care was a coping mechanism of sorts that allowed me to distance myself a bit from the sorrows and struggles she endured, and the horror and sadness I experienced as both her daughter and caregiver. I hope to put all the images together in a book one day, but I am not sure that I am quite ready to re-visit and relive that time just yet.
