Day 5 – Visual, literal or musical.
D is for…
D is for the dark days we have
Where blood sugars represent a roller coaster
And the sight of lollies leaves you gagging
Yet we persevere on
D is for the dumb questions we get
No, there is no good and bad diabetes
No, it’s not curable by diet and exercise
And no, it’s not contagious
D is for dominance
Something diabetes doesn’t have over me
Diabetes will never be the boss of me
I will triumph
D is for damned
For which we are most certainly not
Diabetes does not determine my life
I am not afraid to dream big!
D is for the dreams we have
For everything we want to achieve in life
Nothing will get in our way
Especially not this sneaky pancreas
D is for diabetes
This terrible but enlightening ‘disease’ we have
Full of bad times but good discoveries
Such a bittersweet diagnosis
Very powerful.
