Diabetes as you know Has been 'round for hundreds of years If not for the Banting teams My son would not have left his teens. My child is most important As anyone could plainly see I often ask myself, why him? It should have been me. For them I am truly grateful But I wait and wait, hoping For a cure to be found While thousands deal with coping. And research carries on But I have my hope and prayer Diabetes doesn't go away And Lord, I truly care. Lyn 2002© |
