look out tomorrow

arqios


Notice of absence from arqios
Be kind….
…. words don’t rewind

The letterbox is usually empty
What with the P.O. Box and
social media, emails, SMS
all so many differing ways
to keep ourselves in touch.
But this day’s walk down the
drive had changed the day!
A notice arrived, in paper
from hospital’s renal unit.
This path may lead clear
or perhaps to dialysis or
even a kidney transplant.
So look out, Tomorrow
quite surely here we come.

    A serious situation that I certainly hope works out well. My best wishes friend.

      Thanks Soren. At present I’m on what’s called a category 2 waiting list. Most probably means being triaged to non-life-threatening urgency until the next check for better or worse.
