I grew up in Berkeley in the 70s and 80s, which should tell you everything you need to know about my feelings about the Reagan presidency. (If you need more details, you should know that many of us at Berkeley High donned black armbands in a gesture of protest when he got reelected in 1984.)
But put that aside. This picture of Nancy Reagan broke my heart. There's clearly grief at losing her husband of 52 years, and just as clearly, the exhaustion of caring for him during the last decade when he succumbed to Alzheimer's. Living to 93 isn't worth anything if you aren't even you anymore.
Like I said, heartbreaking. I hope she gets some peace.
