The Disease Poem by Jim O'Donnell

Diseases they all come and go
But some they don’t as we well know
They attack our mind our bodies and souls
So please be strong and do as you’re told

Your friends they all stand by your side
To hold your hand and try and guide
In this your hours of need
That’s what you call friends indeed

A friend a stranger you have never met
So hold out your hand and never fret
For you that has done no wrong
Take a deep breath and just be strong

I’m sure with all our love and care
We can help you pull through there
And hopefully without to much despair
