Your gift for keeping the tension going is excellent. I think Samantha should be a detective, she seems to understand the situation and listens to Jeanette.

Such a sensitive write. Your account of looking after your mum brought back memories of myself looking after my dad for weeks before he died of cancer. It's horrible to watch a parent fading away. I remember my dad saying he was going on a final...
