So far Alex has had
17
blood transfusions
Alex has inspired
127
people to give blood
That’s a whooping
59,690ml
of blood
Take me back to a time when this wasn’t true,
When worries were small and I was small too,
Take me back to a time when I didn’t see this coming,
Fit, healthy and strong and in love with running,
Take me back to my life before I was sick,
When it was all so simple and the future my pick,
Take me back to last summer when happiness won,
When friends said I do, and I too wished for the one,
If I’m wishing for things let’s fast forward in time,
When I hope to be better and toasting with wine,
We can wish for the world and it never come true,
Where we shout, cry, and end up feeling so blue,
In this instance we should always remember this fact,
All you have is this moment, be grateful for that.
