Through heartache and tears, time went on. We learned to live with mum gone. Sorry It has been so long since I have posted. I do read everyones work when I get a chance, just unfortunatly need to make some time to share. Thanks for sharing and for the people who have replied to my earlier post. Fee ------------------------- Then like a realy bad dream history repeated with a simular scene. The phone call came during the day a family friends voice, anguished with pain. I’m sorry I can’t find the words, the news is not good, through tears I heard You have to come now to be by his side, I hung up the phone and broke down and cried. Standing beside him memories came fludding back of not so long ago, in my stomach I felt sick. It’s cancer they told me, so far advanced to save his life now, operation’s his only chance. So as I watched them wheel him in death was waiting with a grin, He wasn’t so easy, he gave up a fight but lost his voice box in surgery that night. So now he is breathing with a hole in the throat, when he moves his lips no sounds appear, my anguish awaits, my greatest fear. Seven long weeks we had to endure when radiotheropy they hoped would cure, sadly enough still no gaurantee, he keeps on looking his eyes trying to smile at me. At least I still have him, although I can’t hear him. Awaiting the answer if all went ok, this they cant tell us their game we must play. Expressions, are the most important aspects, they create impressions |
