On the 8th of October it will be two years since Hamada’s Stem Cell Transplant and we once again thank Prof. N. Russell and his wonderful team at Nottingham’s "Centre of Clinical Haematology" for their expertise and for securing these past two years for Hamada. We continue with joy at each given day and try to make everyday as special as we possibly can.
In celebration I post here Hamada’s favourite Poem, apart from mine! ( I’m jesting of course)
~
From the Springtime of Love by Khalil Gibran.
Love has no other desire but to fulfil itself.
But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving:
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love’s ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.
What an achievement! I’d like to extend mygratitude to Prof Russell and the team at Nottingham for giving us all some precious moments & memories. I am eternally grateful.
The poem that accompanies this great achievement is just exquisite, but no poem has ever moved me like yours continue to.
Can’t wait to see you both at the weekend. All my love – Ellie.xx
Our thanks, of course, to Prof Russell and his team for their amazing work. We do know too that it is Susie’s dedication which gives Hamada such comfort and positive outlook. Your poems inspire Susie and so do you. With love x
