Yopd

Y. O. P. D. 

No one ever expects to hear the words
*you have an incurable disease …
It's not going to kill you in the next few years 
But life as you know it will never be the same *

YOPD
Sounds like ìt could actually be quite fun 
But sadly Young Onset Parkinsons Disease 
Is not quite the party one might think it would be.

What is the cause?
No one seems to know
Apparently it’s not something you did or didn't do ..
The good Lord however decided that this is for you

Will this define me?
Hell no...not a chance!!!

It won't be Parkinsons Disease who has me
It will be me who has Parkinsons Disease
