Conor didn’t say anything. But he knew what she meant. His mum was her daughter.
And she was the most important person either of them knew. That was a lot to have in common.
It was certainly a place to start. His grandma turned off the engine and opened her door. “We have to hurry,” she said.

His grandma put her hands to her mouth and let out a cry of relief.
“I see you found him,” the nurse said, looking at Conor. “Yes,” was all his grandma said.
Both she and Conor were looking at his mum. The room was mostly dark, just a light on over her bed where she lay.

leaning forward to pick up one of his mum’s hands.
