Huffington Postさんのインスタグラム写真 - (Huffington PostInstagram)「The last time Ellie Green saw her mother, they fought. ⁠ ⁠ She and her mother, Angela Green, 51, were having it out over the classic stuff: Ellie’s new independence, her mother’s feelings of rejection, what their relationship should look like now that Ellie was an adult. Angela snapped that if her daughter didn’t need her anymore, she could find somewhere else to sleep. ⁠ ⁠ Ellie drove away, thinking they both just needed to cool off. But she never saw or heard from her mother again. ⁠ ⁠ Ellie’s father told her that her mother had been hospitalized with mental health problems shortly after their fight. Later, he said Angela died of a stroke and had been cremated. He told her not to notify her mother’s family, Ellie said, asking for more time to grieve in private. ⁠ ⁠ For eight months, Ellie bought her father’s story and kept it a secret from the people who knew Angela the best. But by February, Ellie knew something was not right. In the weeks that followed, Ellie and her mother’s relatives began to dig out the truth: There was no record of a hospital stay. There was no death certificate. There was no evidence of cremation. There was also no sign of Angela. And Ellie’s father now had a new story.⁠ ⁠ Their saga is one of familial loss. But it also raises larger questions about our relationships to one another. How does a woman disappear without her neighbors or extended family realizing? How fragile must one’s connections be to others, and how isolated must one feel? And how can there be so few clues as to where Angela is now?⁠ ⁠ Read @quasimado's story at our link in bio. // 📷 Courtesy of Ellie Green」9月4日 23時01分
