To Find a Cure?
Do you want to live or die?
Think of this as you seek a reply
Wouldn't you try and find a cure,
Just so you could be sure?
Listen to your inner voice,
Then make the right choice
Because life is worth the living
More so than dying
Think of your loved ones,
And the life that's still to come
For you are my blood, my family
And you mean the world to me
If I lose you now,
I'll have to go on somehow
I've loved you my whole life long,
And don't want you to be gone
Dedicated to my Uncle Jim, who was hospitalized on Friday the 6th. He bled internally, and
needed 5-6 pints of blood replaced. He also was on a resperator, and his heart only had
20% usage. He had pnenomunia too. The doctors think he has an ulcer. He was almost
dead when he was admitted. He was realeased on Friday the 13th, but refuses to have a
colonoscopy, and a heart cahterization done. He has been prescribed medications, but will
not take them. He doesn't like doctors, and hasn't seen one in a long time, over 30 years.
He is only 60 years old. He is planning on returning to work at GM today, 3-16-09.
