Description
Through the deepening fog of illness and dementia, it is one thing my mother still remembers, a cherished wedding gift from long ago. I promised her I'd get it fixed so from an old repair receipt still taped to the back, I found the “Clock Doctor.” Walking into his workshop was like walking into another time, when pride of workmanship was a point of honor. Knowing that my Mother's time was short and what this clock must mean to her, he fixed it then and there while I watched and quietly waited.
