At 80, my belly had grown so much that doctors were left shocked

But my children organized without asking them.

Daniel was coming in the morning, my eldest daughter was preparing my food, and the other son was in charge of shopping and the trips to the doctor.

One Sunday, after almost two months, we all gathered at my house.

The grandchildren were running through the yard, the great-grandchildren were arguing on a ball, and Sorina brought a big tray with apple pie.

Daniel sat next to me.

Do you know what scared me the most, Mom?

    What?

That we could have lost you without knowing that you were sick.

I’ve lowered my eyes.

I didn’t want to worry you.

I know. But next time you tell us.

I nodded.

After a while, I also told him about his last visit to the medical office with Robert. I haven’t hidden anything.

The kids were surprised, but no one judged me.
