A Mother Wish For Christmas

What Every Mother Wants For Christmas.
There are so many things to wish for at this time of the year,
and every mother wants to have the best and her home filled with Christmas’s cheer.
 When I look around and see what should be, I find the stocking which could mean so much to me still empty.
Not because someone forgot to fill it with a gift, but because mental illness have stolen the most precious gift a mother could ever hope for, the love of my only two sons.
However, I keep the stocking hanging upon the tree, hoping one day they both will be free.
Even when I can bring them home to share a meal,their minds are always in some distance place and their conversations are always out in left field.
Yet, as a mother fill with so much love, I'm still reaching out, and hoping that one day their mind will wake up and find that the table has been set for them for such a long time.
Even though so many times they don't know who I am, I can never forget they are still mine even though sometimes their words can be unkind.
However I guess I must understand they are not coming from the heart, but the mind.
I am hoping that someone, one day will notice the stocking hanging upon my Christmas's tree and realize the greatest gift for me as a mother would be a cure for mental illness.
Then I know I would be able to see and feel all the true love a mother need to feel at this time of the year, and never have to look in the eyes of her sons and fear.
For in this stocking I placed a prayer, hoping someone would have the answer somewhere.
I know I have been waiting so many years and things haven't changed, but I don't believe I have hung my stocking in vain.
I have asked for sound minds to fill my stocking upon my Christmas’s tree lace with all the love that is owed to me.
In  my stocking I have also ask for  peace, because anyone who has a love one who has this condition will understand fully how stressful this situation can be.
 In my stocking I have asked for a prayer to be hung upon every mother's Christmas tree that have love ones that need to be free to share the true Christmas’s Spirit of Joy, Happiness and Peace,
So that this Christmas, Our families can be complete, and everyone around the table will understand every word we speak and the voices of mental illness will never be heard again.
Because every mother wants her family to be by her side.
Especially on Christmas day to open the presents around the tree. This year I hoping the Christmas angel will hear my plea and heal both of my sons, so that we can be a real family. by E. McGimpsey
