My Son's Voice
David was able to call me. It is amazing how my whole being changes when my phone rings, I answer it, and that computerized woman says; "hello this a pre-paid called from Florence Central Unit..... from...and then my son's voice says, "David _____" My heart skips a beat, my blood pressure drops, my eyes light up, my respiration's slow down, the tension in my shoulders relax, a smile comes to my face, and I say, "Hello honey, I've been waiting for you to call, I'm so happy, and he always says in his sweet, reassuring voice, "I know". (smile) For a few minutes I experience relief. For a few minutes, we are together. "Joy". But then, that woman breaks into our conversation and says, "You-have-one-minute-remaining." 'Well ok mom, I love you....... and then that dreaded, "CLICK' . That is a sound I have come to hate. So after some tears, I go to my knees and thank God for the telephone and hearing and answering prayers. God is Good. We are enduring.
