Though Will, Barry and I were missed
Mom's celebration was warm, loving and memorable
Steven and Celina fly home from the Midwest
David flew to the coast, yesterday, and to us, today
Will is prepping for surgery, so he'll not eat dinner but
He feels well-nourished with love and
My heart feels gratified at the abundance of attentiveness which
Simultaneously buoyed Mom's spirit in the Midwest and
Will's spirit in the desert …
As for me, I am deeply aware that
The next several weeks are all about Will, and
As eight weeks of waiting for 24 biopsies to heal comes to an end
And as every end dawns a new beginning, and as tomorrow
Dr. B's well-practiced eye goes in after the cancer, at last …
I'm hoping to muster steadying strengths to
Take good care of Will, day and night, during
This ordeal, which lies directly ahead of us both ...
