Remember Me

Yesterday I was listening to This American Life on NPR which is a collection of stories and essays and field recordings. It's really interesting and thought provoking.
There was one particular story which I thought was so beautifully told and powerful and sad.
David Wilcox tells the story of how his mother, who was dying of lung cancer, made a short videotape for his sister, who is severely developmentally disabled. She hoped the tape would become a daily part of her daughter's life, like the other music and movies she liked to play, that she would watch it and remember her mother. But she also knew her daughter might never even see it.
If you get the chance, go to the website and listen to the podcast or online.
