"she's got the tissues and I
have the tears."
Oh my, what a strong ending. I just want to say one thing, I am very glad to know that there is somewhere/someone you can find comfort in.
Sending you hugs from very far away <3

Hug both of you. Good to hear from our beloved bird. in your poetry and now your journey back to even a grater Andrea or even her wonderful poetry. (if it is even possible ~wink wink~) Your bird is our bird. She belongs to everyone here because she belongs to you, to the soaring highs.

I have goosebumps. My friend, I can't but envy your strength and admire your motherhood. I am glad to be able to imagine Rob in such a scene that although is full of pain but also full of love and authenticity. Your words speak volumes, it's only a short while and you'll be able to spend all the time you want together. May our bird feel better <3

I love the way this poem flows.
I too have been helped by the caring eyes
and patient voice of a great therapist.
