Ill Health

My husband went to hospital last night
I’m hoping and praying he’ll be alright
It took him a while to decide to go
I wish he’d gone earlier but men think they know

I spent a couple of hours with him, but had to come back
To see to Poppy and get things on track
He kept us updated on what was going on
He was very impressed with the doctor named John

I don’t know how he managed on his own at home
It is hard work and you feel so alone
I’m going to keep busy, tick things off as I go
I’m sure as things happen, he’ll let me know

I’m looking forward to seeing him later today
At the moment he’s waiting on what they say
He may need surgery to unblock his veins
They’ve given him morphine to help with the pains

Poppy looks lost, she can’t work it out
She doesn’t understand why he isn’t about
We’re both looking forward to seeing him again
We’re doing ok and can handle the strain

I hope the hospital look after him well
They’re doing a good job as far as I can tell
I hope when he’s home he is pain free
I’m hoping he’s better to a larger degree

I love him so much my heart is his
It’s a testing time is all of this
But we’ll get through there is no doubt
We’ll climb that mountain and sing and shout
