A poem to brighten your day...

22 Replies

so now I've pernicious anaemia

just to add to the ailments I've got

is my doctor quite seriously worried?

Oh no, friends...he's certainly not !

"I'll keep an eye on how you're doing

don't worry ! Come back in a year.

We'll then take a new B12 sample

Just relax...there is nothing to fear.."

So i'm left feeling drained and exhausted

feeling ill and incredibly weak

And then, like a rainbow in grey skies

YOU provided the answers I seek

I'll face every day feeling stronger

cos you've all walked a mile in my shoes

i'm empowered and far more pro active

now you've shown me the tools I can use.

Thank you all so much.

Yvonne x
