Doctors today Doctors tomorrow Doctors heal but doctors break Now I am stuck, my body changed forever How could this happen? I accept your mistakes I am stronger than I look I am bold I am an artist I paint the walls of my hospital room purple My family fills the space My brothers have my back They give me strength Nothing can stop me now You took many things But I will have my happily ever after I am a success story
