Doubting Thomas


“I’m done crying.” The eyes professed: to us, grandma, God — everyone who failed him.

“Send your prayers. Tell the family these docs got no answers.” Decades of broken promises mocking unbroken pain. The life Before is a stranger’s. 

He scorned ours and denied our touch: “Because you get to go home. And I’ll be here dying.”
