Comment on When you wake up, how long does it take for your brain's "OS" to "resume from hibernation"?

Oh, I still believe it, no worries. Sorry for your loss, no matter how long ago it was.

Funny story, there were problems with his paycheck in the military and would get checks of like 10 cents. His mother got diagnosed with leukemia and he made a deal to forgive all the unpaid wages to get out a year early to care for her. He got out, came home, found out his mother had his horse…“fixed”. He didn’t talk to her again for 10 years.
She ended up living longer than he did.

Whoa. Did they reconcile before he passed, though?
