The Fight of Their Lives

God gave each and everyone of us a precious gift of life. We learned to love and laugh

and develop inspirational dreams.

But for some,

their gift of life was cut a bit shorter at the seams.



They were family who shared a part of our lives,

and friends, whom we cried together,

with tears in our eyes.



We held their hands through each and every difficult part

And with strength and courage,

we fought all the way until the very last beat of their heart.



God blessed us with their cherished gifts that they brought to our lives.

And today, their love and memories are what enables us to fight

through this stride.



While their passing made us tearful and sorrow...

We have to realize that our life here on earth

is just a short time to borrow.



Each day is another courageous fight,

So that we get another chance to say

"I love you, and good night."



On some days, there will still be some that are scared and unsure,

But there are many of us joining our hands together,

that believe in a miracle cure.



Our undying faith will lead the way.

Because in our hearts,

we all know that prayers can be answered

each and every day.
