LUTZ MOMMARTZ
Margret, since more than 45 years my partner, hated to be photographed.
For four weeks she is with cancer in hospice. Late in the evening a phone call reached me, she had made herself naked, I should come, take a picture of her, "a photo for the Arts". Irritated I drove to the hospice, but without a camera. When I saw her before me, I understood how serious she was.
The next day, her wish was fulfilled as if it would have been mine, with this both our lives fulfilled miraculously.
