The Message

I listened to old messages on my phone of people calling while I was listening or was not home One call was from my mom saying 'where you at thought you were coming down where did u go.She sounded so happy and wondered why I did not show.I had no good reason I just did not want to go.I feel so bad fore in the next messages the pain started to show. I would go see her she would not smile or cry, come to find out later her extreme pain was the reason why.i took her to the doctor to disclose how she felt not expecting the knockout blow we would be dealt.Sent to a hospice that very day within a week my mother would pass away. I guess what I am trying to say is I really wish I would have went that day.
