Time to ponder and reflect: A long flight
It is supposed to be about five hours but these flights from Trinidad back to Toronto almost always feel like double the time.
The ritual is always the same. I get checked in and these days Ramlall brings me to the counter. He is so very patient and walked with me from the car to the counter with my luggage.
He did a masterful job at guiding me. Ramlall pulling one suitcase and me the other. I get through security, up to the lounge, and then time to board.
I do my best not to think of leaving Mom behind. I sit in my chair, pray hard, and do my best to concentrate on the road ahead. Not a very pleasant journey ahead but it is a journey that must be done.

Sad moments: Saying goodbye to Mom for another time
It only gets more difficult each time I prepare to leave my precious Mom for another time. My visits to her are priceless and each visit holds so many wonderful memories for me.
This time, as I sat next to her in the car, I took her hand in mine and promised myself that I would return much sooner than later. Somehow, though, the sooner is never soon enough.
Mom never complains but patiently waits for me to tell her when I’ll be returning. I leave with a very heavy heart and do my best to live with my conscience.
Saying goodbye to my precious girl is always going to be the hardest thing for me.

Farewells are no fun: Driving to the airport
I was just so relieved to see that Mom was not as upset this time when I was leaving. We chatted, laughed, and I promised to be back very soon.
I took her hand in mine just before exiting the car and this was a really warm and comforting feeling for me. See you again soon my precious girl!

My 2 favourite gentlemen! Visiting Robs and Dad
I had not visited their graves in a few years and I took the time to do so on my way to the airport. Mom and Moya were in the car with me.
Ramlall drove carefully to both graves. Both Robs and Dad were buried in vaults. I first walked to Robs’s vault and stood for a few minutes holding on to the gates of the vault. I stood reflecting on him, my big brother, and was not surprised to feel a sense of tremendous loss as I did so. But then I thanked him for all he did for me and then moved on to visit Dad.
I placed my head against dad’s headstone, traced the letters on his headstone with my trembling fingers, and then I gently kissed the headstone before leaving.

That's my marvelous Mom! Happy precious moments on the patio
These are moments that will never die. So very precious when Mom and I can talk together, reflect on the good times, and then I get to help her with her plants.
She looks for our beautiful butterfly Josafine and when she sees her flying gracefully across the patio she tells me and we both rejoice and thank God for our beautiful Jasafine.
Ah yes! Mom’s patio with its lush garden, fountain, and Josafine enriching our moments.

She is the boss: Moving the plants around for Mom
Sometimes I lift the pots but most times I push them and every now and then I give them a hard shove.
The sun shines down on me as I work, and at the end of it all? Mom’s plants are in their correct places just as she wants them to be.

My beautiful butterfly: Josafine
She is all white. She flies around Mom’s patio without any fear. She flies around us as we sit on the patio in the morning.
Of course she is silent but it is enough to know that she is near. Mom and I are always only too pleased to welcome her and Mom describes her every movement as she traverses the patio.
That’s my beautiful Josafine!
