I saw the posters losing their mothers also and while it did touch my heart, I didn't really understand how bad it is until I read the linked article.

Then I thought, holy shit, it's that bad so I'm glad that I know now so I can be more prepared.

We've been discussing a lot of family lore the last couple years. But when we kids retell it, we always have different versions so we better go back to the source again and write it down

That's good advice.
