There are no biographies that were written for her, no exposés into the way she lived, all I have are her memories and the truth is that memories fade.</p><p>I'd probably just cry all through the entire lunch and hug her till it's time to go. I'd talk to her about everything, I wouldn't leave anything out, I don't care if it's x-rated, I'd just want to let her know everything about my life, everything that she's missed.</p><p>I'd probably try and get as much info about heaven as I can out of her and I'd even ask her if there were any shortcuts there, she'd just laugh and give me a funny look. I don't think I'd be able to let go when my time would be up, it'll feel like I'm losing her over again.</p><p>Maybe I'll just stick with Barack Obama because I'm not sure I can deal with letting her go again.</p><p>I hope this helps.</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"pkvdptt85","appParentAuthor":"eagle42","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
