Description

My mum passed away in February, of breast cancer. I was her caregiver. For quite a while after her death, I had trouble going into her room, so I made it into a makeshift studio. I was grabbing my tripod out of the closet, when I noticed her walking stick. It seemed to sum it all up. Thanks for looking, and comments.

I keep finding memories like this around the house. I lost my dad, father-in-law and mother-in-law, and mother. Each left behind a special cane they used for a long time. Each time, I brought the cane home home, stuck it in some obscure corner and tried to push it all from memory. From time to time, while cleaning a closet or behind a bookshelf, I find that piece of tender memory. The feeling of peace and emptiness washes over me for an instant. This is a beautiful capture.
