From that moment onward, Ford put his teenage energy into helping his mother move forward with her life. Cecilia, having completed all her lifetime goals, needed somebody to help her remember there was still so much life to live.
He took her on every outing and dance party he heard about. The more she 'got down' the less time she had to hide under the covers. Even if it did mean doing a group dance with her son and Bernie Sanders (still a 'townie' from a pervious CAS challenge).

Of course, Ford had his own grief to work through after the loss of his father. He found solace through writing. Turning out his first book of poetry in his bedroom before he was halfway through his teenage days.
