this beautiful poem was written by erma bombeck and for what my knowledge about this she was dying of cancer when she wrote this. as i was told in the early 2000's she actually survived but it is very hard to find this version on the "internet" at the moment. so i am including a link to another version of the story.

anyways, i was read this poem when i was in college taking a poetry class and it moved me to tears.

much love
alice saga

i did find this version of the story
