Poem from My bro-in-law's heart.

I just received this from my Brother-in-law Dave. I thought I would share this with my fellow pacers.

Twinkle Twinkle in your heart,
it really gave us quite a start.

Electrodes, wires and Lithium Cell,
is all that is needed to bid you well.

Beating strongly in your chest,
timed just right to serve you best.

We are greatful God kept you away,
from his palace and here to stay.

Here on earth we need you still,
God has granted in His will.

Words and rhyme and all the other,
Just came out because you are my only Brother.

Auther -- David Mell, Spokane, WA.

it was not for lack of trying but our families are not close anymore. after the deaths of the older people the siblings mostly stay to themselves. after my implant i did not get one call either only one brother asked me how it was going. one is better than none tho trying to stay positive. i envy youtho it is great and it was a lovely poem from the heart jessie

I have 3 sisters, and 1 brother, and none of them bothered with a phone call, or to send me an e- mail after my surgery. You are very lucky to have such a caring brother-in-law.
Thank you for sharing his heart felt poem with us, it touched my heart.

Thank you so much for sharing this lovely poem from someone who loves you deeply and appreciates that you are still here and running bionically. This is a great little piece for all of us to take to heart. Dave is very creative & caring. Tell him I appreciate his words.

Thanks for sharing that poem. Your family sounds like they really care about you. I think we all wish that we had 100% support from our families though this isn't reality for all of us. I am blessed to have the support from y'all and appreciate it so much. Once again thanks for sharing it touched my heart.
Blessings,
Tammy
