Elizabeth Day: The Cigarette Case

In one of the books that you wrote, when your clinician, Alexandra, told you in Greece that you had a heart-shaped womb, I instantly thought, yes, of course you have.

You have because one heart wasn't enough.

And the love that you give others, the mothering you show, which comes in so many ways, and I know this because I'm adopted, and being a mother doesn't necessarily mean born from a womb.

My mothering came from my adopted mother, my neighbour and my friends through my life.
