Mom, Dad and Me
To my surprise (and delight) this was the winning entry in the Drabbles Contest.
My Mom turns 91 this year and my Dad lives in a care facility some 800 miles away. They divorced when I was 13 and my Dad and I hadn't spoken to each other for about fifteen years. These stories are based on recent conversations and events.

So simple, yet so powerful. Perfect snapshots that tell a profound story in so few words. Touching!

Preston, what a change to see something not funny from you. Even so, this was tremendous and drew tears. My eyes are really clean now! Thank you for such a beautiful and heartfelt story!

HI,
live writing story.
it´s allways the same. Divorces of parents allways influence children´s lives. Even, when they are old. It´s awful to watch, when your Dad destroys your Mum.
I think, more children should write their experiences with parents.
greetings

Honestly real and heartbreaking, but with a glimmer of hope.
