My Father and Me

By Robin Noel Talbot

Fathers and sons share a unique bond that, like the rings of a tree, endures from seed to sapling to death. On this round path, like the leaves, the fathers and sons sprout courage, trust, and wonder. This story shares that journey as a son grows, learns and struggles with his father's illness. Upon his father's death, the son is comforted with the knowledge that the bond still holds and hope and love endures, even in a great time of loss and sadness. Robin Talbot grew up near Philadelphia, moved to Maryland for college, met and married Joe, a charming "southerner". Already parents to Patrick, while home on maternity leave with her second son, Sean, during a blizzard Joe was diagnosed with Stage IV Colon Cancer. He succumbed to the disease, but left a legacy of love. Through the years, Robin developed a love of horses, dogs, reading and gardening. Her sense of wonder and adventure spark an eternal optimism no matter the season or path she takes. Robin lives in Annapolis, Maryland. Her two sons are now young men on their own circular paths of wonder and adventure.
