Gratitude

The answering machine is constantly blinking lately

Messages of Goodwill, Friendship and Prayers

You see, my husband is going through some things

 right now and his many many many friends and family

 are leaving small 

snippets of love

He has endured receiving a life altering Heart Transplant many years ago, many seemingly small events since 

but now, the ultimate 

the big C 

has crossed his path to test his faith

We are not a God following family 

although as a boy he attended many a church sermon 

and played the role of altar boy

His broken body is wracked with constant pain 

from this devil inside and it has almost broken him  

The treatments are a bitch

 and he is enduring humiliation

 that I believe he would never or could never 

have contemplated in his short life

The many hospitals and their wonderful staff 

that are involved in his care have taken a toll

 and he just wants to zap the shit out of this invasive intrusion and get on with his life

Through the support of our families 

and the multitude of friends 

that we have acquired over the years 

we will beat this demon, you can bet your ass

Thank you for being there 

words cannot express our gratitude

~~

Peace Love and Huge Hugs
