I'm trying so hard. breathing so very deep biting my lip until it bleeds. i have to stay strong for mom and dad. tears are for the weak. no one wants to tell me anything. trying to keep me clueless. I can hear those poison words twisted in their whispers. paralyzed in one leg. blind in one eye. why would the doctors do that to you? why are they making me watch you suffer? you don't have long. but there's nothing they can do. the only thing you wanted was to come home. but i can't cry seeing you suffer here. crying is for the weak. and you are strong.

Staying strong.
