You loved him for his strength
his spirit and his wit
Now you want him to live
without any of it.

You want him to fight
and with you to stay.
But his pain gets worse
with each passing day.

He can hardly speak words
and struggles for air
His last days are here
Show him you care.

He knows you love him
let him have peace.
Give him permission
to let his anguish cease.
My friend Bob's older kids kept telling him he had to stay with them..yet he was in great pain with tubes coming from his body. Thankfully his pain ended Monday Oct. 1, 2018
