A knife jabs in my side,
I know I’m in for a turbulent ride.
Pain traveling back, side, ribs and heart,
I pray to God that it will part.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday through,
It’s agony. Nothing new.
Separate that pain from body and spirit,
In God’s vast love, I ought not fear it.
Pill, or heat, pillow or song,
It’s a temporary diversion that lasts not long.
A prayer that release is somewhere near;
With God’s strength, I work past the pain and tears.
This blog is intended to help people of all ages cope with many of the challenges that come with Sickle Cell Disease. When first launched, my target audience was teens and parents. Over the years, however, the scope of my content has expanded to help people of all ages who may struggle with similar complications as I. Whether you’re reading this for yourself or to help a loved one cope with Sickle Cell, I believe there is something here for everybody affected by this disease and other illnesses.
