Off the top of my head… I’ll have to think about that. ROFLOL No really here it goes.
Um… just a sec.
I’m trying really I am.
We just got back from the doctor, so I’m kind of stressed. Again.
OK here we go.....
My husband Joe has doctors
So many he must see
For everything from back pain;
to infertility.
He’s had nine operations
But he still needs even more
A new hip cause the old ones bad
And really, really sore.
A hernia we just found out
Right down by the thigh
And maybe one to find some sperm
“no really it’s no lie.”
We’re waiting now because you see
His back was out of wack
And the first doctor picked to fix it
Turned out to be a quack.
He has a staph infection
Six weeks on an IV
Will it really go away
We’ll have to wait and see.
A colostomy that was revised
Then they put him back together
If you want to know his “plumbing’s” fine
No matter what the weather.
They tried to save the bad hip
It’s called core decompression
We prayed that it would work…
Eight months, and then regression.
Seven surgeries in eighteen months
And more pain then "I" could stand
When I said the words “in sickness”
This isn’t what I planned.
Don’t get me wrong I wouldn’t
Trade him for the sun
And after all our marriage
Has only just begun.
But if there is one thing I've learned
In this stressful life
It’s you have to keep your sense of humor
Even in the face of strife.
So God I’m asking now
Please help Joe get well soon…
Cause we’ve been married two long months
With no damn honeymoon!
