Mom, do you forgive me for turning off your life support? You could not tell me so I had to believe the doctors report. Mom, you had been in a coma for months, weeks, and days, and would stay like that forever- here but not always, always. _______________________________ December 4, 2017 Poetry/Couplet/The Forever Unanswered Question Copyright Protected, ID 17-9686-25-0 All Rights Reserved.

Ani, thanks for visiting my older write, yes, it was a dark time for me, but I know in my heart I did the right thing, my mom had been a person so full of life and happiness, I know she would not want to live hooked up to machines with no hope, love _Constance
