Blood red

My aunt is sick. She can't take any more chemo. The poison seems to be hurting her more than it is hurting the cancer. She had to have a blood transfusion yesterday. I wonder whose blood is running through her veins. I wonder if they realise the true value of what they have done by donating their own blood to a stranger. I wonder if they appreciate how much their act is valued by us, those who love her.

My Mama is going to London tomorrow, then Zagreb on Thursday. I am glad. She needs to be with her sister. I tell my Mama to pass on my love, to tell her that I hope to see her in June. My Mama replies "God willing." I hope, I hope, I hope.
