"To my dearest son
I think of you all the time. I'm sorry that I came to your house and scared your children away.
I was so glad when I heard that you were coming for the he reunion. But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. I'm sorry that I was a constant embarrassment to you when you were growing up.
You see... when you were little you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with one eye. So I gave you mine.
I was so proud that my son was seeing a few whole new world for me, in my place with the eye.
With all my love to you.
" your beloving mother"
