Although I've already posted, I've rethought this and would like to pick a different time. I'd like to go be able to go back to 1954 when my mom and dad first got married and then they had their first child whom they lost to SIDS. I'd like to be able to go and be a friend for my mom during this time, someone to give her hope and help and some sympathy. Just someone to be there for her as her mom was not (her words, not mine) nor were her sisters as one was too young and the other she didn't get along with. From what I've gleaned, she was mostly completely alone during this time and so I'd like to be able to be her friend during this time and maybe help her heal/grieve over the loss of her firstborn child and help her through the subsequent hard times, the many moves and the other 4 children who were born between '55 and '59.
