5. Fifth Important Lesson - "Giving When It Counts"

 

Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year-old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the little boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, "Yes, I'll do it if it will save her."

 

As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheeks. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, "Will I start to die right away?".

 

Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood in order to save her.

Oh my goodness I hear birds!!!

[Crimson_Ayla]

When you walk into the room,

then those cowboys swoon,

You're the spark that lights the gloom

And my heart sings.. to your tune.

[Crimson_Ayla]

I flash my hungry smile

and it makes you run a mile

Have you heard the birds and bees?

They've all caught STDs

I beg you darling please

I wanna see you on your (ohhh) knees

[Crimson_Ayla]

But all you got to do is do it

To lonely feelings, nothing to it

All you got to is do it now

 

[Crimson_Ayla]

I flash my hungry smile

and it makes you run a mile

[Crimson_Ayla]

When the hours getting late

You open up your garden gates

If love is just a race

I never seem to come.. first place

[Crimson_Ayla]

But all you got to do it

To lonely feelings nothing to it

If you dont you'll just regret it

But if you do you won't forget it

All you got to do is do it

To know there's feelings, nothing to it

All you got to do is do it, now

Come back to me no need to hide

Make a little room for me tonight

Come back to me no need to hide (x2)

Make a little room for me tonight
