A Disease

Your life has been hard, 
The going got tough, 
Some friends have left you, 
But you seem to keep your head up, 
Family disowned you, 
Men didn't stay, 
I feel a bit sorry for you, 
But in a different kind of way, 
Doctors and surgeries, 
To you and your kids, 
Your all fighters, 
For the length of time I know you, 
Much longer you will live, 
Your a fighter, 
Your a winner too, 
We all have our skeletons, 
Maybe none quite like you, 
A role model for many, 
For me as one, 
Your a part of my heart, 
I'll always pray for us to have fun, 
You have an illness, 
A very big one too, 
But your a fighter, 
So keep fighting, 
And god will help you through....
