Ill

He isn’t well. The cold has got worse, and he has taken to his bed. I try to be practical, no-nonsense, upbeat, but it wobbles me. I think of his death daily. How can I not? Is this borrowed time? Can I ask that you make him well? He says that he wants to live. Can it be so, for a little while longer? Please.
