SLOW DOWN
Feb 10, 2007 | 11:16AM
This poem was written by a terminally ill young girl in a New York Hospital .



SLOW DANCE


Have you ever watched kids

On a merry-go-round?

Or listened to the rain

Slapping on the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
 
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down.

Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.

The music won't last.


Do you run through each day

On the fly?

When you ask How are you?

Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done
!

Do you lie in your bed

With the next hundred chores

Running through your head?

You'd better slow down

Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.

The music won't last.


Ever told your child,

We'll do it tomorrow?

And in your haste,

Not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch,

Let a good friendship die

Cause you never had time

To call and say,"Hi"

You'd better slow down.

Don't dance so fast.

Time is short.

The music won't last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere

You miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,

It is like an unopened gift....

Thrown away.

Life is not a race

Do take it slower

Hear the music

Before the song is over.

I have OA
Oct 11, 2006 | 1:06PM

I have OA its a type of arthritis, and its really bad in the knees. The left one is really bad.There is no cartilage left in that left one at all, I'm walking with bone on bone. I have to wear a breace and use a cane to walk. Its really hard for me to work. I can't do some things around the house anymore. My husband does alot for me now. I don't know what I would do without him.
On Monday while I was at work, I slipped on some paint. I fell on my left knee, I cryed like a baby it hurt like hell. I had to go to the hospital, get some exrays done. There were no bones broken, Thank God for that. So, I had to stay out of work for three days.

But my point on this subject is its not easy doing anything annymore. There is so much I can't do. I even have a hard time doing anything at work anymore. Standing on my feet for 8 hours isn't easy anymore. Its very upseting, because I use to be very independed. And the pain I have everyday too. I have OA in the hands, knees, hips and the neck. So, I have pain everywhere. The pain is really bad at night when I go to bed. Its so hard to sleep.

I'm not trying to get any pitty from anyone, I just would like alittle prayer to help me. My doctor doesn't want to give me a knee replacement until I'm 50, in 3 years from now. I don't know how long I can last. I just like for a prayer to help me get through this pain

Well, lets see, I've been married for 25 years have one daughter 19. I work at Walmart in Claims, I've been there for 6 years. I love to meet new people, although, I'm alittle shy at times. I enjoy playing games on Grab.com.
There's not to much to say about me. I'm just a simple person. I don't do anything.
