So insightful and helpful. Thank you. The subject matter is so tragic and heart-breaking, Janice, I can hardly allow myself to think about it. Not only because I think back to my own dear mother and how loved and safe and cared for she was at the end of her life, but also because I am approaching the age when I, myself, could be an easy target. I thank all the gods that my son calls me every morning and that he loves me. I don't need his care or advocacy yet, but I will. I feel so very sad for those dear ones who are abused. Here are a few more thoughts you might like https://sharronbassano.substack.com/p/our-old-ones
I am so very blessed in that way, as well. My son lives out of town, but we Skype daily. My daughter lives about 5 minutes away and we get together daily. I loved the poem, thank you for sharing.
