| QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Why did this have to happen to my son? Give to me one reason to ease my mind, Why he was chosen as the unfortunate one. Why is it something that presents so unkind? He is still so young, vibrant, and innocent, Standing so strong and robust through it all. Certainly one to be admired for being so valiant. I stop for a moment absolutely enthralled. It has taken me awhile to understand, But it is indeed I who is genuinely disturbed. For it is not that he was dealt a poor hand. It was me as his mother who was utterly perturbed. Anger and rage that is what I feel. He is carrying on as he always has. Being a trooper through this entire ordeal. It�s the question for ME of why that lingers still. I then realize how truly lucky we are. Having him here to look into his eyes, Seeing him, talking to him, holding his hand. How easy it becomes to overlook this feeling of ire. I still have my boy here to behold! That should be my focus right now, Not one of rage and anger to uphold. So what if he can�t raise a lip or a brow! One more feeling I want to address. Even though Bell�s Palsy is temporary, It�s important to often express, This certainly does not make it any less scary! So don�t be afraid to cry! Let it all out as much as you will. The anger will soon pass you by, As you remember your loved one�s here still!! Tonia |
| PEOPLES COMMENTS "Do you think she's drunk?" I heard a woman say. It just happened I had vertigo that day. "Why are you wearing that patch on your eye?", "I know you must have a stye". "What's up with your mouth? Have you been to the dentist?" "It's all pulled over and in a twist". "She is young to have a stroke" "I pity the husband, poor bloke" "Look at you, you'd think someone died" with comments like these, I've cried and cried. JJ |
