CLOSER TO YOUR MOM
I send a text
to Leala and Trish,
letting them know
weâre now in Portland.
And walking distance
to the hospital.
Closer to your mom!
Yay!
Leala texts back.
Trishâs text says,
Hope she gets better.
Thanks, I reply to both.
A NEW NEIGHBOR
After lunch,
the three of us
walk to the hospital,
me carrying the gift.
Mom is still in the neuro ICU,
of course,
but Iâm startled to see
a young man
with a broken leg in traction
in the next room.
I wonder where DeShawnâs
mother is.
Complications â¦
setbacks â¦
My heart races.
I overhear Charles
talking to an older couple
and realize
the young man
was in a motorcycle accident
and has head trauma.
Ack!
Hope he comes out of it okay.
âCharles?â
I ask when he comes to Momâs room.
âWhat happened to
DeShawnâs mother?â
I stop breathing, preparing myself
for the worst.
âOh, she was moved
to intermediate care.
On the sixth floor.â
Relief floods through me.
Thank God.
She didnât die.
This makes me happy
for her sake,
even if it means not seeing DeShawn
as much.
Thursday night
is almost a week away.
