Dear Family and Friends,
another year has passed.
Apparently, I had slipped and came crashing down,
which definitely brought more than a frown!
Colleen wasn’t a happy lass,
Oh, poor Colleen, she had a fracture
felt like she got hit by a tractor.
Oh so MANY, MANY times she was wished for a toddy,
She knows her family and friends will come through,
The only thing we can try to do,
And so once again I’m asking for your name
to add to my personal “people of fame”
And so dear family and friends please help us to end this debilitating, mean and horrible disease that has stripped me of my dignity and I can’t hide.
I have no choice but to go along for the roller-coaster ride. As you know there is NO CURE! Let’s make it happen with SUPERWALK! Which I’m taking part in September 10th. I need all the support I can get! My intention was to raise $7,000.00. But my Granddaughter says $10,000.00 I would love to prove her right!
I’m still struggling with all my might,
to try to end this endless fight.
This disease wont leave me alone,
This disease wont leave me alone,
It’s forced me to move from my beautiful home.
I have three lovely Care Givers who see my plight,
and how each day I put up a fight!!!
In April, the Medics were called to my door,
In April, the Medics were called to my door,
to find out why I was splayed out on the floor.
Apparently, I had slipped and came crashing down,
which definitely brought more than a frown!
Colleen wasn’t a happy lass,
for she had landed straight on her ass.
Oh, poor Colleen, she had a fracture
felt like she got hit by a tractor.
Oh so MANY, MANY times she was wished for a toddy,
to help with the pain in her body.
She knows her family and friends will come through,
and help her in her search for relief,
and be aware of their disbelief,
there is no cure for this horrible beast
and be aware of their disbelief,
there is no cure for this horrible beast
it’s a terrible burden to say the least.
The only thing we can try to do,
to find a cure,
Is to not let this disease endure.
Is to not let this disease endure.
And so once again I’m asking for your name
to add to my personal “people of fame”
You all know of the trials and tribulations
this scourge of a disease can bring many complications
this scourge of a disease can bring many complications
As I ready myself for another day,
I hope I can control my enemy,
who yanked away my dignity
Walking shaking and mumble/jumble
people look at you like, "where is she from”
who yanked away my dignity
Walking shaking and mumble/jumble
people look at you like, "where is she from”
this Parkinson’s is not fun
and I’m trying to think of a pun
There are none.
