How to say I love you
Yesterday was a day in which I could not believe,
The doctors gave me some news which scared the heck out of me.
The devistation that I felt so deep within my heart, Made me feel loneyl, scared, nervous, is my life really falling apart.
I then picked up the phone to call my dear friend Elaine,
But she too was at the hospital dealing with her own CH pain.
I then went to my computer, clicked on my favorite site,
I needed to share this with people who cared, who loved me with all of their might.
As I sat down to type my message on the Cluster Headache board,
I started to cry from fear, I knew we had a message to get to the Lord.
I asked for advise, I asked for your prayers,
How would I have known that so many people really cared.
The responses were in abundance with your love and understanding,
As of this morning when I awoke the list was still expanding.
I knbow that I am scared, I know God will pull me through,
But how can I explain exactly how much I love all of you.
You all have been there for me when I was so low, down and out,
When meds didn't work, pain was so bad, you never minded responding, I could tell what you were all about.
I thank you all so much for being right by my side,
My own so call family (Mother, Father, Brothers and Sister)only laughs at me while I sit there and cry.
You all have truly made me feel like I belong in this family,
For that I will love you all, no matter what unconditionally.
So now when I pray to the good Lord up above,
I am giving thanks for my daughter, husband and the CH famil giving you all much love.
You all are so special, so special in my heart to me,
I know the Lord will bring me through this, just you wait watch and see.
My prayers are with you too hoping that one day you will be pain free,
But today I wanted to say thank you all for truly loving me.
