S - excellent piece about a disease that effects so many. However please know some of us remember those who have suffered it, still remember them in their prime. Thankfully technology has helped with this. Videos, photos, memories forever captured and stored to be looked at many times over..

What a powerful poem with a strong ending.

Stephen, a powerful raw write that truly expresses how so many people feel and deal with each day. Keep fighting the fight and stay strong. Always remember, there are a lot of people who love you out here. Hugs-

Sometimes the unstoppable beast can be kept at bay for at least a little while. It can seem like a slow painful nightmare to suffer from an illness that takes everything from us but nothing can take away the inner self. Keep fighting to keep the inner spark going. Sending you a huge hug and much love Milly x

For anyone who's never experienced this, you've explained it brilliantly. The pain you depict is so raw. Really well done :-) x
