Summary
What would you do if a doctor told you that you had only two years left to live?
Would you spend every remaining moment surrounded by the people you love?
Would you fight for every extra day?
Or would you leave before they had to watch you disappear?
When forty nine year old Lisa Swain is diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's disease, she makes a decision no one around her can understand. She buys an old camper van, packs her life into a few bags, and sets off on one final journey before the disease steals the woman she used to be.
There is only one problem.
She doesn't want to make the trip alone.
A desperate late night advertisement brings an unexpected reply from a complete stranger named Carla Connor. Two women. Two lives. Two secrets. One journey that will change them both forever.Inspired by the novel Tout le bleu du ciel (All the Blue of the Sky) by Mélissa Da Costa. This is my own interpretation of the idea, with an original story, characters, and relationships.
Sometimes the people we meet at the end of our story become the beginning of someone else's.

Summary
The pain in her chest becoming unbearable.
The image of Carla’s tear stained face wedged behind her eyelids like a cruel joke.
She leans up against the cold hard wall outside.
The cool air slapping her face like a much needed reprieve from whatever the fuck that was inside.
Her body doubled over, the palms of her hands resting on her thighs trying to somehow ground herself.
Her breathing is heavy and shallow.
The first signs of a panic attack rising through her body with speed.
Tears threaten to spill from her eyes.
What the fuck just happened?
Carla kissed her.
Carla fucking kissed her.
