My mother and I had a disagreement on the last night of her life (2/28/89). Remembering and sharing this story helped me realize that the disagreement was just one of many moments, most of which were quite wonderful.
This is one of my favorite stories from Linda. But thrilling story of Dorkus and her love for soap operas is still my all time FAV!!!
