Even with FSHMD Everything is Awesome


A powerful genetic disorder mutation of the genes Passed down through heredity proclamations of this rare disease A variety of different types yet no cure to be One kind in particular has made a huge impact on me I sit and watch a daily struggle my loved ones battle their individual troubles Yet still smile and live their lives Regardless of possessed mutations their hope survives Through all the falls and all the times that life appears against them They pick out all the positive things which is what makes this all so awesome My brother, father and grandfather have taught me to live on No matter what may come your way you have to act so strong And even though there are some days I wonder why me Why must such a terrible thing reside within my family I then realize without this life I would not be me So I can say I’ve learned to love the disorder Of Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy. And in this life I won’t ever forget to live with so much optimism Even with struggles of FSHMD Everything is awesome.
