My parents, Ruth and C.J., were married 40 years.
Later in life and in their relationship my mother struggled with mental illness.
Out of love, my father hid it from the world, including me.
The reason he hid it from me was that he wanted me to be able to focus on photojournalism.
Captions were written by the photographer.

My father was the oldest of 15 siblings. Though more than one hundred relatives filed in and out during his final days in New Orleans, my parents were able to find quiet moments together.
