It’s never easy to talk about mortality with our loved ones. It’s even harder between a physician mother who excels at hiding her emotions under rationality and a daughter who spent her childhood solving math problems in the hospital and shutting herself from the cry in the morgue. They avoid conversation about mortality and related feelings at all costs - until the mother becomes a cancer patient and the daughter becomes her caregiver.
