my hero

You're going to be all right 

After all this has passed 

That's what I'm holding onto 

To get from here to there 


The annotated MRI scan image 

The picture of your brain you sent

Makes clear this is serious 

A very delicate operation 


It's best to stay calm 

While waiting the days out 

Focused on the positive 

Letting go of the rest 


You have done your homework 

And set yourself up with the best care 

Effectively responding and preparing 

To recover and resume your life 


It won't be easy is an understatement 

But the way you have kept it together 

Your quiet courage in the face of fear 

So admirable I’m making you my hero
