To All My Copd Friends
To All My COPD Friends
Let me share an experience with you
That brought my life better quality
It is a surgery that is fairly new
And with God’s help it saved me
I began to feel my life slipping by
As if there would be no tomorrow
Deep inside I just wanted to cry
And I didn’t want anyone to know
There are so many others suffering too
With this terrible condition besides me
I understand what they are going through
As if your life is surrounded with misery
I actually thought that I was going to die
I was put on 24/7 oxygen and moving slow
I was thinking I had to plan to say goodbye
To my life around me and everyone I know
This is what I discovered that I could do
I found some folks refer to it as the LVP
A lung valve procedure - the breakthrough
For those who have emphysema or COPD
I want to encourage others to give it a try
To breathe again and continue to grow
It is certainly worth it for you to comply
Your improvements will begin to show
I want to be your sneak preview
Of enjoying life again with energy
The biggest reward I’ll give you a clue
Is being able to live and love my family
Those who need this I hope you qualify
It is such a blessing and the way to go
Even if it isn’t forever we’ll know why
We gave it our all and went for the gusto
