After my mother was diagnosed with Huntingston’s Disease knowing she would likely one day lose most of her memories she decided to captioned a lot of her old photographs. The image above is a scanned image from a few years ago. From what I remember the caption for the image read: “Me, with friends, a year before Justin was born”. Reflecting on this now and why this otherwise mundane image has always stood out is the pleasure that my mother used me in this and many other images as a frame of reference.
My mother, circa 1986.
Happy Mother’s Day.
