Z is for Z... the Last Letter

I've been writing about my mother this month,

and this is the final one.

I haven't wanted to write this one because it is the last one

for this challenge.

Something just didn't seem right about it.

Because, it's not the end,

my mother's story continues.

We've got Mother's Day coming up in about a week.

A Mother's Day we weren't sure she was going to be alive to see.

We've had ups and down.

We have daily challenges.

I have almost daily frustrations

because I am someone who needs control

who takes control of situations

and this is one I can't control.

I know, I know,

"Let go and let God."

I try.

And, that's all we can do at this point,

keep trying...

until we can't any more.
