New Dreams

Let me introduce you to Mr Orange Cumquat
Or 'Sunshine' as he is sometimes called.

We met when we were (very) young
So we've been married a (very) long time

                         
 He's a man who likes the outdoors

   
And 'going bush ' when he can

                     
He's been a great Dad

 
And worked hard for us all 

                                           
The years have flown


Mr Orange Cumquat is sadly not so well these days
And it's been a difficult time
For him, especially,
to come to terms with the Parkinson's
that is changing his life




My bossy red headed man
With his fiery temper and strong certainties
Has gone into hiding
And we miss him

The world changes
We have to change with it
To make new memories
From new dreams

  7. I can definitely feel for you as my father has Parkinsons too. Don't ever feel that he has gone into hiding, he is still there, it just takes a while to process things these days. It's not an easy road, but the most important thing is love, and I'm sure he gets a lot of that!!
    Take Care,
    Ulrike
