Guy Clark " My Favorite Picture of You "

[DustDevil]

A little bit of rough language in the narration, but this one gets to me. Guy Clark lost his wife to cancer last year.
Hits pretty close to home.

Jeri - 1972
Passed when she was 22 years old

That's a heart-breaker, Man, I feel for you. I nearly lost my wife in '06.

 

[OldDog/NewTricks]

In away I was REALLY Lucky.
I got to go through all that - (3 years of in n out of Stanford - Transplants - Isolation - ending in death) and "I" was never sick

Most of all I Learned that there come a time when It's Ok to die!

 

[Faster horses]

We too have been through some heartbreaking things and we have found
there are things worse than death.

V_key sure looks a who lot like her mother, doesn't she?

 

[OldDog/NewTricks]

Jeri. dead in 71, was NOT V_Key Mother - V_Key was born in 83...
Her mother was divorced when "V¬" was 13
I have been Mr. Mom science 83
If one believes in Reincarnation??? _ "V¬" is a cross of Jeri and My Mother!

I gave up every thing in '68 to be in the Hospital with Jeri.
I gave up every thing again in '83 to be Mr. Mom

I stress that "V¬" owes me "NO" Cosmic debit...
