After Death
Days so busy. . .
Much to do.
What’s accomplished?
Not a clue!
List gets longer
By the minute.
Does that list
Have rest time in it?
Call retirement
And another.
What’s available
For my mother?
Call insurance.
Call the VA.
Did they call back?
No, not today!
They say one thing;
Then they change it.
How to know
Dad’s death benefit?
What? You changed
My mother’s name?!
Are you brainless
Or insane?
Send more faxes –
Make more calls –
“Thanks for holding.”
Patience falls.
Now it’s sleep time. . .
Hope I can.
I’ll start tomorrow –
Once again.
–Dawn Cawthon Behrens
Hi Dawn…I do hope you have sorted it all out by now.
Sending you a big hug.
Hi, granny – Some is sorted out. Still working on sorting out some of it. Trouble is, at the end of the day, I don’t feel like I’ve accomplished much even though I’ve been busy, busy, busy. Sigh… Thanks for the big hug! 🙂
Hang in there, Friend…..huggggggggg
Thanks, my friend! It’s a little crazy – or a lot crazy. I don’t know how in the world my Mom (or anyone in her situation) would be able to navigate all this. I’m having trouble, myself! :-]
