Vintage Weekly: Mother and Aunt

location: Valley Mills, IN

my momma and her Aunt Pearl

was ancient (seen through my young eyes).

But I remember thinking that she was kind,

which she appears to be here,

what with her arms holding my mother closely.

Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether ...
