The small bird sat on my window sill.He seemed alert and bright.
He sang a song of moon lit skies and journeys to far away places.
It was only when I looked more closely that I saw the sadness in his eyes.
Who will mend his broken wings?
Decisions looming.
Heart aching.
Life spiraling out of control.
Descending into madness.
Surreal days blur into nights of endless tears.
Battered and bruised.
Hope bleeds into the dirt.

Diane,
Wishing we could do more. Please let all of us blog readers know what else we can do to support your family through this crisis. Drive you or your family back and forth to the hospital? Bring your family lunch or dinner down to the unit waiting room? Anything?
We love you. Hugs.

Diane,
I echo the offer of help in whatever way I can. I work downtown so dropping by mid-day or on my way home is so doable. Let us know.

Thanks for putting it up mom.
lots of love
Mrs. Pippen,
My prayers go out to you and your family. Nick is an inspiration to many of his friends from Joppatowne. I will always remember how much he made me smile and his friendship throughout the years :)
