MLIVE,BY,-
.WHY,, JOE'S PARENTS CRIED.
by James Taylor
The United Church of Canada
,There was a kid in -highschool, called Joe.
He missed a lot of school, because he kept hav-
ing operations on his back for something. But
he kept:his grades up, and somehow he managed
to be one' of our best athletes too.
I remember the one track meet. His long,
wiry legs stretching for every inchof traek, Joe
came flying down the hundred yards and won.
We were, all happy for him.
There weren't many parents in the stands
at those events. Most of them had to work. But `
Joe's parents were there. They came to congra-
tulate hini. And, to our surprise, they- were
crying.
U One year later, Joe was dead. All those
operations were for cancer. Of the spine.
That's why Joe's parents were crying. Be-
cause they knew.
I •wonder what kind of courage they needed
when Joe told them he was trying out for. the
school football team. I wonder how they felt to
watch him wheel lithely,,past one opponent, only
to be brought down by another's thundering
tackle.
. Years later, another father whose son in-
herited ain incurable illness told me: "Most of
the pain -isn't giving up the child, .you know ...
it's givjng up your expectations for him. You
keep thinking of what he could become. So you
try to protect him against what could happen to
him, for the., sake of your hopes for his future.
It's funny - until,we realized that he could die,
we :couldn't let. him live."
` -JL'sus said firings liit� Yate too,-puzzlir}g
things; like learning to live each day as if there .
were no tomorrow, and giving up your life go
that you `could have it.
They make more sense when I think of Joe.
He lived 'w5th his own death within him. His
parents gave up their expectations for his life,
and let him live each day as if tomorrow would
come anyway.
One day, it didn't. But Joe had a good life.
Joe was happy. Joe was loved.
We used to think, "Poor Joe". We • should
have learned something from -him and his
parents.
