Sickness

>>>>>>>>>Have you ever seen the look in a little girls eyes
                    When she looks up at mommy and ask ,why?
                    What did i do wrong? why am i in so much pain?
                    Please help me mommy before it drives me insane.

                    The look of fearand anguish thats fills a mothers eyes
                    When there are no answers or a reason why.
                    Doctors try to sooth a frighten mothers mind
                    By saying she will be ok, she will be just fine.

                    High fever, the flu and the asthma takes its tole
                    On this poor little girl who isent that old.
                    Doctors told the mom, your baby girl had a febrile seizure
                    She needed to be monitored and to controll her high fever.

                    Prayers, medication and love would help along the way
                    To cure this little girl thats so sick here today.
                    After the fever had broken they said she can go home
                    Thank you doctor, now i dont feel so scared or alone.

                    After bundleing her up for the drive back to town
                    Her dad was told the news and now has a smile instead of a frown
                    When something like this happens, your whole world shatters
                    But when the good news comes in, thats all that matters.
