I Need Help with Helping Mom
Two weeks ago, my mom fell and ended up incapacitated. I have since flown down to California to bring her back to Washington to live with me in my house. She needs 24/7 supervision. I feel honored and privileged to support her healing. I also am happy she is here, for many reasons. Side by side with all that, I have been struggling with my own self-care and stability, given the demands of caring for her. Given that I am healing from cancer, and that I have been dealing with a cancer flair recently, I need to be especially careful to keep up my own self-care practices. So I’m throwing out the net and asking for help, from those near and far – both to support my mom and to enable me to take care of myself, and do my own healing, while supporting my mom.

Whisper of Yes
You want what I have
Demanding it by your actions and inactions
Calling for my love to take shape
In the form of rescue

As you condemn me hate me spit on me
Do everything in your power
Consciously or unconsciously
To undermine my own life wellness choices
And ultimately peace
You effectively demand my servitude
At your beck and call
Loving me like the predator
The mother who eats her young
My Life hangs in the balance
Painful painful
I want another model
Which you refuse to participate in creating
And so I step up to the challenge
Lift my head open my heart face the stars
And yell “NO!” toward the Universe
Ripple effect
A quiet internal whisper of “yes”
Opening the portal
Rescuing retrofitting rebirthing myself

Colonialist
Mother
You are like the colonialist
Mining the land for all it has
Sucking out the bounty creation wisdom magic
Benefitting surviving living expanding
Denigrating devaluing spitting raging
