Hospice Vignette
Shave off a slice of the gummy bear.
Don’t eat the whole thing.
It’s too strong. Makes me paranoid.
I know. Because you used all of it.
A simple shaving dissolved in sleepy time tea
is all you need.
I’m dying, Douglas.
I think I need a little more than that.
I know, Mom.

Whew — this is harrowing and loving both. Intense moment.
Oh my, this is so compelling. Thanks Douglas.
