the other people in my house
believe it or not there are other people in my house
danny husband age 36
bryon son age 8
james son age 5
these are the other people who live in my house
these are the people who listen to me cry when my mother frustrates me
these are the people who wait patiently while i do the things i need to do with my mom
these are the people i feel most sorry for
the ones that suffer the most when i cannot cope with the responsibilities i have taken on
my husband who i never even consulted about my mom moving in to our home
my husband who has done more for my mom then any other family member combined
my husband who holds my hand and lets me cry and protects me when I drop my basket ever so often
my son bryon age 8 who misses the grandma he had before she hurt her brain the most
my son bryon who comes home from school and sits in the tv room downstairs until i get home from work just in case grandma needs something and to let her know she isnt alone
my son bryon who can explain better then any doctor what happened to his best buddy
grandma fell and hurt her brain and now she says tuway that is it
my son james age 5 who doesnt really remember the grandma he had before she said tuway
my son james who goes downstairs and crawls around under her hospital bed and has conversations with her
my son james who helps give grandma her squishy pills every night before he goes to bed
my rocks my joys my reasons for getting up out of bed everyday
the other people who live in my house
