Held Captive By My Body

By Roger Turner

I can hear the world around me
I can see what's going on.
I just cannot voice my anger
You see, my muscle strength is gone.

"I'M IN HERE....CAN'T YOU SEE ME?"
"I JUST CANNOT MOVE MYSELF'
"PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE ME"
"DON'T PUT ME ON A SHELF"

I'm not a fragile bisque doll
In a chair for all to see.
I'm a prisoner of my body
But, the body still is me.

'I'M NOT DYING WITHOUT FIGHTING"
"I STILL THINK AS CLEAR AS YOU"
"I CAN'T RUN OR WALK LIKE YOU CAN"
"BUT, THERE'S LOTS THAT I CAN DO"

I am a man held captive
My cell is muscles, flesh and bone.
I don't know how to describe it
I'm not stuck in here alone.

"I NEED SOMEONE TO HEAR ME"
"PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE I WAS HERE'
'I KNOW IT'S NOT THE LIFE I WANTED"
"I NOW KNOW DEATH I DO NOT FEAR"

ALS has killed my body
But it has not killed my mind.
I am in here, same as always
Still full of thoughts, some harsh, some kind.

"I AM IN HERE AND I HEAR YOU"
'I TREASURE ALL THAT LIFE IS WORTH"
"LIKE LOU GHERIG SAID BEFORE ME"
"I AM THE LUCKIEST MAN ON EARTH!"

 

 

My Life with ALS

By Kaelin Brightman

 

My body doesn't seem to want to work anymore.

But my brain is still functional as ever before.

My lungs don't seem to get much air.

But nonetheless they are still there!

My neck likes to dwindle further and further down.

But now I admire what is our earthy ground.

My muscles are weak though sometimes too tight.

But they are used strongly (no doubt) with all my might.

My voice is gone, sadly in a void.

But I thank The Lord for two thumbs and my droid! :)

No matter what's happened, no matter what will come.

My faith in God is never weary. It always stayed strong.

ALS may have had its way.

But my spirit forever will stay.

With my girls and my wife, and my friends in my life.

I can never be changed even now that I'm gone.

My faith has made an impact that will help others press on.

Therefore I conclude that in this battle

I have won and gotten through it, even in an amble. 

I worked my whole life. Tried everything I could.

From flying a plane to splitting wood.

No matter the cost my life isn't or will ever be lost.

Just the physical damage from what is ALS.

But Love, faith, humor, and strength is what I have left.

 

Prayer for a Miracle

 

God of all creation,

You who spoke a simple command

And brought forth light from the darkness,

I ask you now to send forth

Your miracle-working power to heal me.

 

You cleansed the lepers, opened the eyes of the blind

And by speaking a simple command,

You empowered the crippled to rise up and walk.
You sent forth your life-giving power

To all those in need.

 

I ask you to send forth your healing power into

My body and give me the strength to fight this illness.

I ask this through my Lord, Jesus Christ,

Your Son, who lives and reigns with you and

The Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

 

Amen.
