Guts and Glory


Guts and glory, guts and glory

Crohn's Disease can be quote gory

Diagnosed at the age of fourteen

Relief mixed with fear, yes that's the dream

Years of treatment until I met remission

Need to stay on top of this chronic condition

Began to reach out and volunteer

Met great people, my life purpose now clear

To become a great doctor was now my goal

So I could care of others and give them control

A lot of life left to do, explore, and see

It's always fun in the world of guts and glory!
