God’s in box
After another trip to the doctor, D is now on six different medications. Two of them taste awful, and he howls and runs away when we take the bottle out, but then uses every ounce of bravery in his body to swallow them. I keep wondering whether we’re doing the right thing, if we’re putting him through this unnecessarily.
This afternoon, I remembered one of my favorite Anne Lamott articles, about God’s in box. I love Lamott, because she’s just as neurotic as I am. She both makes me feel normal just the way I am, and gives me hope that it’s possible to get off the hamster wheel.
