i put down the disinfectant rung liquid from a cloth she calls it anointing the floor she’s trying but even this close to death           she has no view on god and can’t science much afterlife cancer has ridden up her                              and surpassed her pelvis she just wants a view                                  thats not a hospital room a place where she feels okay       to receive final visits but no facility will take her                     till her doctors agree     upon her approximate end date i continue disinfecting her room whilst we discuss neat ideas about 'what happens next'
