“Now I Can Sleep”
Written for Albert Tseng, M.D.
All alone, feeling scared and laying in a bed,
Trying to remember everything my family doctor said.
“It’s just a test,” he said, “that’s all that it will be,”
But now I’ve been admitted, and no one here knows me.
As I looked up a nice young man came walking through my door,
Hello he said, I will be your doctor for what you have in store.
We think your heart has problems and you must take another test.
I will be right there beside you, now you get some rest.
Somehow, I knew that he was special and the fears I had erased .
I knew he would take care of me with the things I had to face.
If not for him I would have died, bless him Lord I pray.
For I know God picked him just for me, so I would be okay.
I ask God everyday to bless him and keep him safe and sound.
For he is a very special doctor and I want him to stay around.
He made me feel so safe, and I knew he would always be,
Right there helping me understand and taking care of me.
So I ask you God to give him all the best life can afford.
Let him know he’s loved and truly most adored.
He’s a special doctor that touched my heart so deep.
Let him know how special he is, so I can get some sleep.

Would that we would all find a doctor who remembers the Hippocratic oath: first, do no harm. Beautiful.
