I honestly turned to writing because I didn't know what else to do, and because a friend had gently suggested it.

It's terrible to know that no matter how you try to help your child, his condition will worsen.

The most precious love is often the kind that isn't returned, and that is given freely.

I write one poem a year, usually in January or February.

I do believe that great love brings with it the terror and possibility of great loss.
