A Personal & Continuing Story on Deportation…

“No Paperwork Needed”

Chapter 2 – Alone

By Sue Thomson

Yelling

     Tears

                No time for goodbyes

                                                             No last hug

                                                                         No last kiss

                                                                                                    Just gut wrenching pain…

Here one minute…

                     Gone the next…

 

Shock

 Heartache

                   Grief

                           Fear

 

First Together

                  Then Suddenly Torn Apart…

 

Alone.

All alone…

Except for my daughter sitting in the back seat

Three years old and severely disabled

Unaware of what had just happened

but tearful from all the yelling.

 

Her daddy was suddenly gone.

A man whom she depended on

for far more

than most other children depend upon their fathers…

Without a lifetime of help, she could not survive…

Unable to walk, talk, or eat on her own…

She has seizures every day,

but has known his unending love and patience

and his strong arms lifting her and carrying her.

Will she know that he is gone?

I believe she will….
