Understand--Finally!

How I finally understand what it is that parents go thru when their child is ill.

I now understand
What a parent feels
when their child
is ill.
My sister got ill
when Mom was in
East Texas.
I stayed up ALL NIGHT!-
WORRIED!

I have come to realize,

What COURAGE AND STRENGTH MY
MOTHER HAS TO TAKE CARE OF ME
FROM THE TIME I WAS IN COLLEGE
TO THE PRESENT WITH THIS
BLASTED DISEASE!

I told her that I honour her for that last night. She said "Thanks".

I have a new found appreciation for parents!
