*I just found this acrostic - I must have written it soon after Caleb became sick and forgotten it....*

My Son

Motherhood never promised this;
your body fighting off its demons,

Steeped in sharp malignancy
of spirit and of blood -
never fear that I could love you less.

One can feel the fever
of this fear, Beki.

Well done!

Oh, Beki. So filled with raw emotion, angst ~ and love.
I just sent up a prayer for your beloved Caleb and you.
God bless you all.

God's Loving, Eternal Light,
Linda

Beki~
In the visit of Caleb's spirit ... you found a memory showing the depths of your continuing love for him~
