Ernie, thank you! I hope your wife is healing well! I wrote that for my wife who cared for me during every slip, fall, and the transplant itself... I've been in a near death situation many times now, and she has always been the one to insist I get to the hospital, and drove me there each time. Caregivers receive little to no recognition, and all the grief, anger, and responsibilities thrust upon them when they too need someone to care for them. I have actually penned over 300 poems touching on nearly every facet of life, and also am a singer songwriter. I've written a few donor awareness songs, but because I'm somewhat new to this site, I'm not allowed to post links.
I also run or help run several transplant related groups on Facebook, including one I created just for transplant caregivers only. Recipients are turned away for membership so the caregivers have a place to vent, share ideas, and support.
God has gifted me greatly, and I am forever grateful for these gifts!
Stay healthy!
God Bless
Joe
