Oh my goodness. Mom didnt realize that Dad is dead. The nurse just cme in to check on her, and Mom said "yeah, they check on me a lot because they know Paul is not around. I don't know where in the hell he is, I haven't seen him for 3 days." When I talked to her about where he was and how he died, she was shocked. "nobody told me. Was he murdered?" She doesn't remember anything about his funeral... Then she started asking about the last 2 babies she had and whether or not they've been fed. 'which two Mom?' "well there was a boy and a girl. I'm assuming Paul was the father, but I don't know." "I wonder if Chuck knows that he's Dad. What, did Mom not want to tell me about this?" She was really really surprised and upset by the news. I sincerely hope she forgets this conversation. And next time she talks about him in the present tense, I'm going to leave it that wy.
