I Really Do Care If I'm open and honest, I'm glad it's not me. But my Mother-in-Law is not well you see. My wife's being brave and holding it in. "They're not going to have her, we won't give in". But I'm stuck in the middle because of the past, my worry won't matter, it just wouldn't last. We used to get on, her Mother and I. She blessed our future, a tear in her eye. But then things went wrong, it all fell apart. She asked us to leave, we had to depart. We moved by the sea, a #life of our own. If only she could see just how much we'd grown. A child we had, he brought us such joy. A grandson for her, to us our little boy. She couldn't bring herself to open the door, could she be without us? We couldn't be sure. And so here we are, the tables have turned. Will we talk again? Have all bridges been burned? The thing is, I have a kind of love for her. I wish things could be just as they were. But I need to show strength for my wife needs me strong. To fall apart now would just feel so wrong. The ops and the chemo will make her so sad, but without all these things, it can only be bad. She's a tough old girl, my Mother-in-Law. She'll pull through, of that I am sure. If I'm open and honest, I'm glad it's not me. But my Mother-in-Law is not well you see.
