Hi all,

I put pen to paper to see what happened and came up with this.

Hope to see lots more on here but for now I'll start you all off.

JUST GOT MY DATE

AND I CAN'T WAIT

IT'S BEEN A YEAR

BUT NOW IT'S NEAR

GETTING NERVOUS JUST DAYS TO GO

WILL I GET THERE OR BE A NO SHOW

THE DAY BEFORE AND ALL IS GOOD

HAVING MY LAST MEAL OF CHINESE food

NOW MY FAVOURITE FOODS I CANNOT HAVE

HOW WILL I COPE, WILL I GO MAD?

THE DAY HAS COME

WILL MY HEART POP

I WISH IT WAS OVER AND DONE WITH

SO THE BUTTERFLIES WILL STOP

THE PRE-MEDS ARE IN

THIS IS FUN

NOT LONG NOW

THEN I'LL BE DONE

THEY'VE COME TO GET ME

OH MY GOT IT'S HERE

WILL I STAY CALM

OR PANIC WITH FEAR

DEEP BREATHS, DEEP BREATHS

COUNT TO TEN

IT'LL SOON BE OVER

AND THEN..........

WAKE UP ON THE WARD

FEELING NUMB

MY DAUGHTERS HERE

TO SEE HER MUM

AND THEN I REMEMBER WHAT I'VE DONE

I WENT UNDER THE KNIFE

TO START A NEW LIFE

FOR MY LITTLE GIRL

AND OF COURSE FOR ME

TO WATCH HER GROW UP

IS WHAT I LONG TO SEE

UH OH, NOW THIS IS PAIN

I NEED SOME HELP, OR I'LL GO INSANE

THE NURSES ARE ANGELS

THEY BRING THE MORPHINE

AND IN IT GOES, AH THAT'S BETTER

I'LL NEED TO SEND A THANK YOU CARD

OR A THANK YOU LETTER

I CAN SIT BY MY BED

WOO HOO - NOT BAD

STILL A BIT OF PAIN THERE

BIT I'M NOT SAD

I'M TAKING FLUIDS

BIT IT'S GOOD

COS I'M NOT HUNGRY

DON'T THINK ABOUT FOOD

TWO DAYS HAVE PASSED

AND I GO HOME

NOW THE CRAVINGS START

WHEREVER I ROAM

I GO INTO THE KITCHEN

THIS FOOD IS NO GOOD

SO OUT IT GOES AND IN THE BIN

NOW THAT FEELS GOOD AND HELPS MY MOOD

AND NOW THE BATTLE HAS BEGUN

HOW CAN I MAKE THESE MUSHIES FUN?

LITTLE TASTES OF SOMETHING YUMMY

HELPS THE CRAVINGS AND SOOTHES MY TUMMY

THE scales ARE MOVING

IT'S GREAT TO SEE

JUST STICK WITH IT

AND GOOD FOR ME!

SO TO ALL THE BANDSTERS ON THIS SITE

WE'LL HELP EACH OTHER, WE'LL DO THIS - RIGHT!

SO MANY STORIES, SO MUCH INSPIRATION

TO HELP US ALL WITH OUR MOTIVATION

Cool Yvonne. It can almost be sung to "Heartbreak Hotel".
