Anna reflected on her most cherished companions.
There wasn’t a room in her home that didn’t feel their presence. They helped her become organized and value the importance of scheduling her days.
When they stopped behaving as expected, especially at times of need, Anna fell apart.
Her son noticed the untimely demise. How she missed appointments or arrived late for others. How her personality took on an air of grumpiness.
