My dad suffered an injury in the Army, he then was struck down with Wegener's Granulomatosis is a very rare autoimmune disease. He's an awesome man with many tales about his life experiences!
MASSIVE shout out to my mum here. She's almost lost her child and husband yet she's the strongest woman I know.
So recently i've been struggling with the words to explain,
what it's like to see my dad in less pain...
From an every day thing to just once in a while.
It's been over 15 years since we saw his true smile,
My dad is my hero, was an everyday GI Joe.
But we lost him to illness abut 15 years ago.
When I say we lost him - well he was still here,
He just was a different man, me and mum shed a tear.
Now that he has his love by his side,
You'd think they were on a magical carpet ride!
There are no words to help me explain,
What it's like to see my gorgeous happy dad again.
I knew he was in there somewhere,
He was drowning in 'life's just not fair'.
The world doesn't stop when you struggle with being ill,
You've just got to keep up, to plod along until...
And once more, with relief, things will be different once again.
...there you are, back in the game,
Stay strong, be positive, you've got to want to live.....
...he did, he's back and has so much more love to give...
