If I felt pride in watching my mum come alive in the NICU, I am confused in the wake of her departure. That I would go to such lengths to protect someone I do not know. To advocate for someone who could have advocated for herself. To live in such close proximity to a stranger and to pay a price for my devotion. I am unable to reconcile the idea of Nurse Florence, sending her preemies into the world healthy and well and eager to live, with the knowledge that my mum has gifted me a life to mirror her own. I do not care for omo tuo and groundnut soup as much as I do for Nurse Florence. When she calls from Ghana, I can think only of betrayal. I let my phone go to voicemail.
