Abandonment


Dear Bishop Jenky and OSF-Saint Francis Medical Center,

"We are guilty of many errors and faults,
but out worst crime is abandoning the children,
neglecting the fountain of youth.

Many things we need can wait.
The child cannot.

Right now his bones are being formed,
His blood is being made and his senses are being developed.

To him we cannot answer "Tomorrow".
His name is "Today".

---Gabriela Mistres,
Chilean Nobel Prizewinner
