Plus que touchant...et effectivement, très émouvant.
J'adore cependant ton humour caustique...
Quelle tristesse cette société qui s'abreuve d'illusions.
Digne des grands reportages cette série photo.

C'est une horreur, bien que chouettes mais cruelles photos. Lourdes, je le ressentais déjà enfant quand mes parents pas encore malades m'emmenaient à leur pélérinage annuel avant qu'ils ne soient malades. Pllutot mourir vite que de se faire traîner agonisant pendant des années.
