Smile for me Sarah
you always touch my heart
they say you're a little broken
not whole but only part.
Smile for me Sarah
cause i know what they can't see
the golden soul inside you
the dream you'll one day be.
Smile for me Sarah
my world, my love, my life
look beyond tomorrow
to the distant shining light,
and smile for me Sarah
mommy's never far away
no matter what the future brings
I'm with you all the way.

Aw,
I'm sorry for everything you're going through and what Sarah does. Might I suggest maybe maybe making the color on the background a better one to read? I had to hide the background 
Anyway, here's a hug for you 
and a hug for Sarah
