Betty Gives me cake Of the homemade kind. And Sometimes We make the cake It all depends On how she shakes. Sometime’s It’s so bad she can not move She can not talk. Only cry It’s painful, distressing, morbid and weary It makes her wish to die And then Other times We bake We clean She is back to Her role as wife. You wouldn’t know That She hates life
For the first person I ever cared for. Betty, 70 years old suffering with Parkinsons disease. 18th June 2009
