Ann-Ti Archie

Her life didn't unravel well Fact: it has been a slow hell Sadness and disappointments She sits and lives through much worry Till time claims her frail shell being Three fifths of a family Husband high always doped Eighty five years of fake!

Very sad but moving, Doris. Yes, I noticed your mom seems to be doing better and I'm so happy for her. She's a treasure and I admire her deeply. Love, Carolyn

Well this seems a hard set of circumstances Doris, if this write describes someones reality i have much sympathy for them, it is hard to also to do justice to that situation in words, however if it can be (done) i think your piece here is as well guided as anyone's could be.
