Cough

Coughing and I can hardly stop. I am worn out by the hacking deep in my chest. I stop to sleep for a time and dream that the cough is getting better. Soon after I hack away waiting a time of getting sleepy.
I have gone to doctors, specialists who have done x-rays. The conclusion is that it is something I need to learn to live with. It gets tricky in the world of caregivers. I am good at caregiving, but the damn persistent cough lingers reminding me that my days as a caregiver are coming to an end. I grieve. I cough, a bark in the wilderness calling everyone to repent, the kingdom of God is near!
