"Outside the hospital, a young girl who was selling small bouquets of daffodils, their green stems tied with lavender ribbons.
I watched as my mother bought out the girl's whole stock. Nurse Eliot,
who remembered my mother from eight years ago volunteered to help her
when she saw her comng down the hall, her arms full of flowers. She
rounded up extra water pitchers from a supply closet and together, she
and my mother filled them with water and placed the flowers around my
father's room while he slept. Nurse Eliot thought that if loss could be
used as a measure of beauty in a woman, my mother had grown even more
beautiful.
