A letter

To Pop, in the nursing home in Tucson

Sorry

The aide says you ask for me on Wednesdays. I drive down on the third Sunday of every month. It is not the same Sunday I would have come if I had been raised better. I am trying to make it up by being the one who shows up. I know that is not the same thing. I am doing it anyway.
