Today is August 13th...
...on this day in 1950, Johanna M. Schwalbe was born in Rome, Georgia. Her father and mother were both teachers, Jack Schwalbe teaching engineering and machine shop, Nina Schwalbe teaching English and Home Economics.
I could fill in the rest of the details between that day and today, but the important thing is this. I'd rather honor the day my mother entered the world, than spend a day weeping on the anniversary of when she left this mortal coil.
Every year, if I have the funds to do so, I make a donation to the Alpha-1 Foundation.
This year, is probably the first time I've actually be able to be coherent enough to talk about it and actually do the deed exactly on the date in question.
I guess this is what's called progress.
