sharp minds trapped in failing bodies.
failing minds trapped in failing bodies.
loneliness.
confusion.
helplessness.
tears that can't be held back.

i think this song captures some of my feelings well.

even when i take an extra minute to listen or hold their hand, i know that their pain doesn't just go away.
i read their charts and catch a glimpse into who these people really are. not what they may look like now. not what their bodies may appear to be. but what was and is important to them-four children and 12 grandchildren, growing up and raising a family in sedro-woolley, owning their own business, fly fishing, a marriage lasting 70 years...

sometimes my job really breaks my heart.
