Cheating Death is a poem I wrote for my brother, Tom, after his heart surgery a good many years ago. It is published in my poetry book Alice's Verse. You can hear me read it below.
I've been thinking about Tom a lot since his passing Christmas Eve. Tom cheated death so many times that it is difficult to believe he is really gone. Since the early 1970s, Tom has been a walking talking medical miracle. We are all so blessed to have had him as long as we did.
