Kathy's birthday

My sister-in-law was diagnosed with
metastasized lung cancer last June.
She’s been MRI’d, CAT-scanned,
poked, prodded, chemo’d and radiated.
We celebrated her birthday on Friday.
She enjoyed it thoroughly.
May we celebrate again.



sixty-one birthdays
mama only had sixty
mental hurdle jumped
 

brother’s words of love
join similar sentiments
telling her we care
