Parenting Plan

On my last poem
In my last words 
In my last days
In my last breath..

I will walk with my son daily, each day we are together
We will go to the park, his favourite place in the world
Make big plans for our future together
Make big plans for those holidays we will be together
Make plans of those few but big weekends we will be together 

Before my last breath
Dr started with a poor prognosis but she says I now have a fair prognosis 
Increased my time from 6 months to almost 2 years
The only secret hidden from my son

As we walk, I try to stay strong
My heart and mind stronger than ever 
My physical not so much
His innocence, his energy, his dreams, his excitement 
Keeps me going
Keeps me fighting

You should see his face as I imitate his favorite cartoon characters 
It's priceless
And as we walk, each breath a treasured gift
And as we walk, each step a precious memory
Our life is bigger than two years
