Waiting

Just a quick snippet that makes for contemplation.  Mostly Sugar Bear just goes with the flow with his diabetes.   Mostly.  He's pretty resilient and resigned with it all.  Just every once in awhile we get a window into how he really feels.  Yesterday after talking some more about the vaccinations and what they do, he said, "Wouldn't it be awesome if this group of shots cured my diabetes?  I mean, then I wouldn't have that anymore.  I wonder if it could."  Of course we had to have more conversation about how that isn't how all this works.  It's made me feel a bit weepy.  Listening to Leonard Cohen's Waiting For The Miracle to Come.  We'll go on waiting.
