Songs about autoimmune conditions?

[Ssmart]

Found this recently, I’m such a music and also audiobook person, and this song you may have heard, but it’s by someone living as the partner of someone with an autoimmune condition, and I think anyone who has RA like me, or has any associated condition can relate to the carer/partner in the song and also to the person being sung about...

Anyway it made me quite emotional but hopefully this link works...

if so why not share yours...

He was in matchbox twenty in 1990s: some great songs, if sad x didn’t know his wife had AI disease though

[Ssmart in reply to Kerensa21]

Yes lots of his songs are along those lines...

I read this...

The phrase "her diamonds" is a metaphor for a girl's tears. In an interview with Neil McCormick on Twitter, Thomas explained: "It's actually a song about a girl who is very ill. It's a song about empathy and dealing with that with someone you love." The Matchbox Twenty frontman is referring to his Puerto-Rican wife Mari, who suffers from a rare autoimmune disease.
