Oh..........heartbreaking....I've seen too many of these adult babies who were once mothers, fathers...now reduced to being cared for by inadequate children. :( Powerfully expressed sorror...you are ever in my thoughts, my prayers...
I am on this same path with my 66-year-old mother. She has a terminal lung disease and is on oxygen 24/7. I am her caretaker. She lives with me. She still performs all of her daily duties and drives. She is very young in mind and spirit. We are like sisters, have been every since I came out of her loving womb. Most of the times I am the mother, though. The mother/daughter bond is a very special one. Blessed Be, Kate
Your writing is brilliant as always. No one has the depth of expression that you do. What I love about your poetry is that you write on many different subjects and your words are always fresh and new. I know this is hard for you because I am going through the same thing. The last stanza says what I couldn't express about my situation. I pray for your stamina. xxxooo Janet
Oh Kate, a powerfully moving, resonate piece. Hope all goes well for you and your mother-- I've walked a similar road multiple times with my 88 year-old mother these last 14 months...
Peace and Blessing be with you, and yours,
Carolyn

We are never separated from the womb nor the mother for God has carved us there this is beautiful sad and felt. Thanks for sharing and much progress with this investigation.
an intense desire for reconciliation with you mom ... to bridge the gap of a "far-off closeness" in this spiritual realm after earth is so more ... moviing and nicely penned, Kate ...
Your pain and emotion is so well expressed here. It touched me deeply, yet I cannot find enough words to express my caring. I know your spirit is strong and your faith is stronger. Please remember to take care of YOU too. I'll keep you both in my thoughts and prayers.
Your poem sounds an empty ache that went straight to my heart and soul, Kate. I hope your mum does well and I will add her to my prayer list. I worry about you also, since I know that the radiation takes its toll on the body and you are constantly on the go, needing to take care of others. It is a testament to your will and to your stand against letting life's inconveniences get in the way of living. Sometimes keeping busy really is the best way to deal with the difficult times. I so admire your spirit, Girlfriend, be well. May the strength of a thousand prayers guide you through these trying and painful times and may God’s blessings rain down on you, your family and your mum.
Love,
Sherry
OH Sweet Kate, I hope all goes well and my prayers and thoughts are with you not to mentin my great admiration of the wonderful strength you always seem to draw on an lend to others as they need it. Great write and great gift...

Oh Kate, how utterly brilliant and forlorn this sounds,,,BUT we know the Maker of LIGHT who shines in every corner of the darkness and will not ever allow the dark to overcome it. We know the God of second, third fourth, and forever chances. therefore it is true, hope springs eternal, and my hope is in the power of your persuasive indomitiable spirit to overcome the limbo!Yes you can form a new constellation, you know the Maker of constellations!
Very moving and touching composition Kate
There is no place like Home, and no Home like Heaven
When we are in the womb, we are safe and snug in our maternal waters, until cast upon the Shore of Life !
From whence we came, we shall return agin in joy and salutations !
I will continue to pray for you and your Mum's continual recovery and restoration !
God Bless
