I'm tired

I'm tired of not having control of anything but my eyes.

I'm tired of my wife worrying herself to death over me.

I'm tired people saying one thing and doing another,

I'm tired of being just a head attached to a useless body.

I'm tired of biting my lip and/or cheek every single time I (involuntarily) close my mouth, which is about a hundred times a day.

I'm tired of reassuring other people.

I'm tired of nurses being afraid they'll break me or my computer.

I'm tired of watching Lora work herself into an early grave trying to do everything.

I'm tired of my daughters not having a daddy who can do things with them.

I'm tired of being this way.

I'm just tired.
