How To Save A Life

My nephew, Kaniu, is on my mind.

I'm thinking of how much I loved him and how much more I wished I'd done for him. Even though I know I did all I could with what I had at the time, the weekend we spent together when I brought him to visit me in New Orleans just wasn't enough in his memory in those last moments.

I just crawled out of bed with Shorty. After crawling into bed with him and holding him for a few minutes, I crawled out knowing it wasn't enough as I remembered Kaniu sleeping with me as an infant, "how will he ever know how much I love him?". And I'll go to sleep tonight wondering, "How To Save A Life".

My Tree


This tree is just as flaky as I am. It's not quite sure if it's ready to completely commit to autumn. Then again, maybe it's confused by the record high temperatures in the 90's this far into October!
