Up Among the Contrails


One day when we were sitting on a sunny park bench at her care facility, our dying loved one looked up at the airplane contrails, something she had often done because her son was an airline pilot. "That's where I want to be," she said longingly, impatiently.

Her son was sitting by her side last night at 7:35 p.m. when finally, at long last, she made the passage and is there.
