Samir turns 40 on August 23, 2025. Forty years of “Chouchou,” my big brother. This birthday will be as joyful as he is. He celebrates life and love. Love for a child, a brother, a neighbor, a disabled cousin who has grown up. But did my parents expect him to reach 40? During the week of birthday preparations in Normandy, in our family home, the family gathers, reminisces, and wonders about the future. What will happen when our parents are no longer here? Who will take care of Samir?
