When my mother was dying, we talked about the afterlife and what she
thought it might be like. (Background - my Father was a verbally and
physically abusive alcoholic who made my Mom's life a living Hell. He
died about 15 years before she did)

Anyway, Mom said that she thought that Heaven would be a place where she
would get to be with my Father again... but they would be young and
healthy and happy and in love, like they were when they first met.

I told her that if she was expecting to see my Father in the afterlife,
she had better pack some asbestos clothing because if there was any
truth to the Heaven/Hell thing, he was going to be in a very warm place.

If one of us is right, I hope it was Mom.
