I am Blessed


I am blessed, as you can see

I walk around, on my own two feet. 

Doctors, needles, operations, and more. 

If you saw me at age 11, your jaw would hit the floor .

Nine titanium rods, sticking out of my leg.

The pain, unbearable I would plead and beg.

To be a healthy young man, just look at me. 

Six years ago, I was faced with fear. 

Six years later, not another tear.  

I couldn't do this journey on my own,

What g-d has planned for me, is still unknown...
