A CRIP'S ANTHEM


(Sung to the tune of "My Favorite Things")

Eyedrops and eardrops and squirts up each nostril
Two-puff inhalers and count out today's pills
Bloody one finger for sugar machine
These are a part of my morning routine

Click out the insulin and stick in my tummy
Plan for a brekkers high-protein and yummy
Drain off the Foley and ingest caffeine
These are a part of my morning routine

Then comes clean-up, lots of rolling,
Scoutie watches, licks my toe
I finally am ready to face a new day
Your public awaits, Child of Jo
