You are a strong person my friend, I'm not sure I could have had the courage you did to face your problems. Some people would just give up, but you showed everyone! Very well told story, best of luck in the contest.:)

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger indeed. What a powerful story/testimony of trimputh. You didn't allow your condition to define. Your spirit to through your journey is so inspiring. Your story can help so many. I hope you share as often as as possible. Keep running) walking the race, some start but never finish. I'm sure each time you cross the line, it does like first place.

Hey so what if the meter is a bit off and the rhythms may feel forced.... your words I read came from the heart from the very start! Take it from an old fart, poems are like art, and art is seen from the EYES of OUR BEHOLDER and God smiles down on you this day and every day over the past decade so POWER ON, WRITE, Write, Write some more!

I certainly enjoyed your poem in a rhymed couplet format. There is inspiration here to never give up. Your poem is expresses the strength of the human spirit.

I have news that may raise your hair. Overcoming disability is like climbing a stair. If your faith and determination are strong enough, you are halfway there. With God all things are possible. Even learning to live with a disability that cannot be defeated. May God bless you even more than he already has.

-Here's to your determination not to give up.
-Thanks for sharing your notes and poem.
-Your poem flows well and tells a story
using rhyming couplets.
-That isn't easy, but it worked.
-I like the verse about "Great news from the Doctor's lips"
and the next one about God making a point.
-A very good closing couplet.
-I am glad you are doing well and
hope you do well in this contest, too.

I am so thankful you posted this poem/story as I am currently dealing with spinal issues. This poem serves as inspiration for anyone facing difficult challenges. Your clearly expressed message is more important than the meter and rhymes. This entry is definitely a contender in the contest, and I wish you well.

This is an excellent and fun poem that you have crafted to share with us. I know it will do very well in the contest. Your choice for rhymes was very good and complimented the style of 'rhyming couplets'. Well done and good luck.
