NAPOWRIMO24: Poem 4
"I've never seen this before."
I've never seen this before,
says the doctor.
Woah, says the ultrasound technician.
I'm sorry.
Says the doctor,
We're going to need to run some more tests.
I'm sorry.
This is the specialist's number.
We're going to need to run some more tests.
This is quite an unusally large growth.
This is the specialist's number.
This is unprecedented.
This is quite an unsually large growth.
Do you know the percentages, the chances?
This is unprecedented.
Dangerous.
Do you know the percentages, the chances?
A surgery like that just isn't possible.
Dangerous.
There's nothing we can do.
A surgery like that just isn't possible,
either.
There's nothing we can do.
Insurance won't cover the safest option.
Either
you wait and possibly die because
insurance won't cover the safest option
or you scrape together what you can to do what you don't want to.
You wait and possibly die because
its hard to gather that much money so fast
or you scrape togehter what you can to do what you don't want to
even if you still must wait and possibly die
its hard to gather that much money so fast
family and friends are miricles and angels
even if you still must wait and possibly die
at least you know you're loved.
Family and friends are miricles and angels
Woah, says the ultrasound technian
at least you know you're loved.
I've never seen this before.
