As a fellow '92er who grew up without those issues (and with Mozart played to me in the womb), it kind of makes me look back at my life and realize (again) that I shouldn't take any of it for granted. Both of my parents came from extremely abusive and traumatic homes, and my dad had to escape to Canada from Detroit with my grandmother and his siblings. Both parents became Christians as teenagers, and thankfully they have not let me down in that regard (although Christians are still human, of course). Your mother is one brave woman. Makes me look at Mozart's Requiem in a different light...
looking forward to more posts.
