      Great poem, Britt. And unfortunately something we can (or eventually will) all relate to. You captured the feelings well.

      Thanks for sharing, John.

      Great poem, and well expressed sentiments by Britt.
      I can relate to the theme. Sometimes, we feel so helpless to see others suffering, and we can’t do anything about it. But, healing words do help.
      Thank you for sharing this John.

    Great piece Britt...
    It's so hard to watch someone you know & care about suffering through an illness. 
    You don't know what to do & you wish yiu could take their pain away.
    Trust me...you got it right in that quote.

    The best thing to do for others is to show them Compassion.

    Sometimes that's all we want anyone to do...is just show us they are standing in our corner.

    Great write.

    Your words ring true, Britt.  It is hard being the one who views another person in pain.  All we can do is our best to be there and support them.  Thanks for sharing this with us, John.
