Not many people know about crohns disease, what a
humiliating illness..                                 

Could I have some toilet paper please?

Its so painful; but yet so shameful, it's
a debilatating disease.                             

Could I have some toilet paper please?

I was thirty, when I was diagnosed with this sickness. Doc said;
"Sorry about your luck, your intestines are almost swelled
shut."                                                       

Could I have some toilet paper please?

My son says; "Dad lets go toss some ball," I said; "Sorry
son I don't feel good at all."             

Could I have some toilet paper please?

 


My daughter wants to go to the father daughter dance.
She said;"Could you? Would you? Pretty, pretty please!"
"I'm sorry honey," I just can't. I might soil myself you see,
but...                                                           

Could I have some toilet paper please?

Some days I just can't cope,
I would like to leave a very long note.
But I don't.
So, just please, please!                                    

Could I have some toilet paper please?

 


There is no cure, this I know for sure.
You may never see me; I may just be
right down the hall, sitting in my stall.
You just may hear me calling out!                                                                   

Could I have some toilet paper please?
