The game places particular focus on the narratives of Edith’s mother, Dawn, and Edith’s great-grandmother, Edie. Dawn, on the other hand, is terrified of her family’s past and eager to conceal it from her children.

This is a lesson that only dawned on me years after my grandfather’s death. Not everyone has dedicated time to thinking about what their death looks like or put words to the vision of what they want their death to be.

As dawn came, sari-clad women sang prayers and blessings in ancient Sanskrit. Powar led us down steps to a narrow concrete pad near a dusty floor to ceiling curtain. He handed us thin cushions and motioned that we should put the cushions on the concrete and sit down. The sun hadn’t risen, but it was already hot. I tried not to choke.

I awaken before dawn and she’s still there, clutching my belly and rattling my mind. Anxiety wants to be my friend. I know because she crawls into bed with me every night. It helps a little when my sweet pup Disco lies on my feet, the warm presence of another living being.

It dawned on me that I, along with many other staff members, had cared for her son during his hospital stays. A sense of helplessness washed over me. Finding a way to help. As I left her room, I was overcome with a sense that I was failing her. Was there anything else I could have said or done to bring her comfort?

Stacy: It’s an exciting time in a lot of ways because I think right now we’re really on the dawn of expanding the science and understanding different ways to do this.

It was grief filled with pink dawn, pale green leaves, and bird song. My son drove me home the next morning as sun rose over green fields. I was surprised to feel joy on this saddest day, but Nature surrounded the grief with musical color. It was hopeful grief, not hopeless grief. It was grief filled with love.
