Osteoporosis And H.R.T.


I put this one on every now and again!
In case anyone misses it!

It needs to be read and absorbed...
So ladies, read and absorb!

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, only young, you see.

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!
