My life part 2

My mother Yvonne was born and raised on a farm in the southeast of Sweden about 20 km from a town called Kalmar.
Her fathers name was Henry and her mothers name was Wera. When she was 6 years old a baby sister, Ann-Kristin, was born.
Grandma was sick a lot and when mom was 12, granma went to hospital for treatment of an aggresive cancer. My mother had to take care of my grandfather, who started to drink, her sister, all the animals, the farm, cooking and cleaning.
It was a tough childhood, but she managed to pass school and started to study agriculture at a bording school in the south of Sweden.
In the same class was my father ...

Not my father, but a very popular guy in 1968.
