First of all, thank you everyone for the continued prayers and support for mom. She is doing well. The Surgeon who originally cared for her 17 yrs ago , took over her case yesterday. Called dad at home to have consent signed and completed the procedure to permanently place the shunt last evening. Mom
sailed through her surgery and is doing well. Could be back home as early as next week!
The stress of the past few weeks has had an odd effect,I find I am not sleeping much and my mind is racing (pretty normal) but the thing that I have found most calming in the wee hours of the night , is writing!
An idea will pop into my head and I will jot it down , and mull it over .Soon enough I have written another poem! SO forgive me if I deluge you all with poetry over the next while , they are random and pop into my head , well, just when they do . For now here is one that "hit me " while driving yesterday
Lessons From Nature
If we listen to Gods creatures
We find they are amazing teachers
You rarely see a stressed out cat
Or for that fact a sunburned bat
Squirrels know to plan ahead
and are never short a safe warm bed
A momma bear cares for her babies
Protects them ,no ifs ands or maybes
Unconditional love , most folks can't reach it
and yet a good kind dog can teach it
Yet some people tear others to pieces
and call ourselves the wiser species?

So glad your momma is doing better! Keep the good reports coming!! :)
And that poem is right on the money!
First off, hoooRAY for Mom, what a woman. Hugs to you, and I guess the only silver lining to all of the strife you've been going through, is that your muse is awake, and wanting to be read!
Another great poem. Keep on writing!
So glad to hear your mom came through surgery and is doing well. Hope you can rest a little easier now....
Although...
Your late night musings are quite talented.
Glad you Mum is on the mend! That poem is oh so true, i like your late night muse, even if she wont let you sleep.
If it is the wee hours of the morning that the muse has run of the house- at least it is a positive thing and run with it girl!
Glad Mom is doing well and will be home soon. She's a tough one that, and strong. Both traits were passed onto you through love.
So glad your mom is doing better, and how wonderful that her former doctor is treating her again.
Love your new outlet. :)
14th:)
