Osteoporosis And H.R.T.



They call it the silent killer, and now I know just why,
And believe you me, it's awful, it made me want to cry!
It started with a hysterectomy, cos I was knackered inside.
Well, they could have my bits, cos I didn't have any pride!

I had never felt so well after, I was completely brand new!
Now I could have a life again and there was nothing I couldn't do!
But I go so much pain cos my bones were aching and sore,
It was my arthritis, so I wasn't worried, I knew the score.

Didn't I?

I deteriorated fast, one stick, then two, and then…
I had to have a wheelchair, now I was knackered again!
Arthritis!  That's the problem, or so I thought it to be,
But I was getting worse and no sign of improvement could I see.

The pain became real bad, when I would sit, walk or stand,
I didn't know how to cope?  It was totally out of hand!
But it was only my arthritis…!  Well, what else could it be?
I was only 39 years old, much too young, you see.

Wasn't I?

Bone density scan, cos things were really bad!
Osteoporosis was diagnosed now I was really feeling sad!
It was down to H.R.T. Or the lack of it, I should say,
I wasn't on them, they'd stopped them, and my bones were not ok!

I didn't know how important or imperative H.R.T. is,
Or it helps stave of the silent killer!  Cos the hormones do the biz!
It's totally too late for me, but before I finally go…
I'll preach all I can of H.R.T. cos I'm certainly in the know!

Osteoporosis is a killer, bigger than you know!
H.R.T. is imperative it's the only way to go!
Don't be like me through ignorance, heed the warning that I give!
Say NO to osteoporosis, if you really want to live!

They call it the silent killer because;

OSTEOPOROSIS Kills!!
