The Story Behind
"Her mum's diagnosis came through while she was in an important meeting.
Her dad called. Said: the results came back. Your mum's situation —
She took the call at the conference table. Didn't go out. Kept her voice very low. Said: got it. I'll be there soon.
After the meeting ended, she sat alone in the car park. Didn't start the engine.
Just sat there, doing nothing, for about twenty minutes.
Then she drove to the hospital.
For the next two years, she kept her job running and accompanied her mother through treatment.
Her mum would sometimes ask: ""Aren't you tired?""
""No. You're the tired one.""
Her mum said: ""That's not what I meant.""
She thought about it. ""Yes. But I'm still here.""
Still here — sometimes that's the whole answer."
