70s, female, ethnically ambiguous. Tan skin, graying hair, brown eyes. Nella was someone you love from the moment you meet her. She was kind, warm, welcoming and always willing to go the extra mile. That was proven when she delivered Angela, the baby of a couple she’d never met, on their living room floor. Quickly, the aging widowed nurse became part of Davide, Rosa and Angela’s family. Nella helped raise Angela, even becoming her legal guardian for the two years between her being orphaned and turning 18. When Nella got sick, Angela returned the favor by taking care of her and making sure she could pass peacefully at home. The story looks back on who Nella was to Angela and the impact of both her life and absence as Angela navigates her own next chapter.
