It means the world to have a doctor
Who listens and understands
As you grow older you seem to be in another land
Your pains increase with each new day
And there is only the doctor
Who can help you in any way
So we should be thankful for men like these
Who have the patience and comfort to bring to you
All the help and understanding you need. Mrs Shaw (age 90)
