She would get the family's laundry and return it 2-3 weeks later. she was loyal, dedicated, hard-working, and selfless. One day she gets the laundry but doesn't return for 2 months. The family thinks she died. Then she returns, gives back the laundry, explains she fell sick, but never comes back after.  

Conflict: The woman battles with her age and her health. Her son is ashamed of her. Struggles with the harsh winter. She becomes ill.
