Life in a Hospital - Charles Michael Duke

Музыка

As a patient with Cystic Fibrosis you tend to spend a lot of your life going in and out of hospitals… Over the past 12 months I’ve spent 7 of them sat in my hospital bed. But don’t feel sorry for me, living in a Hospital isn't all bad!
Massive thank-you to the Adult CF team and ward C5 at Southampton Hospital for letting me film the video whilst I was there on an admission. Written and Performed by Charles Michael Duke (Me…)
My Current Diagnosis’:
- Cystic Fibrosis
- Lung Function 30%
- CF related Diabetes
- Anaemia
- Pancreatic Insufficiency
- Waiting for a Double Lung Transplant since April 2015

Lyrics:
Hooked up to the oxygen and I’m not looking hot
Not showered in 7 days and my hair is full of knots
I can barely get out of bed to cleanse all of my spots
but the hot nurse is on tomorrow, and I’m gonna show her
what I got, what I got, what I got
O life in a hospital aint as bad as it seems
though my status’ can make it seem quite extreme,
I’ really just looking for some sympathy
O life in a hospital aint as bad as it seems
There hot meals available 24 hours a day
chilli, Lasagne, steak and chips - cooked your own way.
and nurses who will chat just a call button away,
they’ll talk about that girl when you’re having a bad day,
O life in a hospital ain’t as bad as you think,
fridges in your room just full of snack and drink,
and there’s a drawer of sweets filled to the brink
O life in a hospital ain’t as bad as you think
Porters take me everywhere and I always use the lifts,
Making friends with the nurses’ as they do their shifts,
I get to see my friends and they bring me lots of gifts,
Dirty magazines just filled with pictures of…..
O Life in a hospital aint as bad as I say,
you can travel round in a wheelchair all and every day,
and there is a burger king just 50 meters away!
O life in a hospital aint as bad as I say,
But it does have its dark moments you can bet, oh yeh,
At the end of the day there’s a reason you are there.
being included in everyone’s nightly prayer,
I think we’d all agree we’d rather be elsewhere,
See Life in a hospital is as comfortable as can be,
thanks to the amazing work from our health care team,
they make us better when we are ill and sick,
and its thanks to them, I’m able to sing
O life in a hospital aint as bad as I said,
Breakfast brought to me every day whilst your lying in bed
And there’s a TV right above your head
O life in a hospital aint as bad as I…
Life in a hospital is no reason to wine,
even if it’s impossible to get some alone time,
Life in a hospital aint as bad as I say,
After all the toilet is only 2 steps away
Life in a hospital is no reason to curse
Its full of women and they’re all dressed as a nurse
Life in a hospital aint as bad as it seems
Just make sure you don’t have any wet…

    Charles, you are amazingly talented and truly have captured the hospital experience for CF young men. My son Jonathan has CF and a double lung transplant, and he is now very healthy, 9 years post transplant! I showed him your video and he loved it. It truly captures in every way the positives of being in the hospital. He always loved Children's Hospital of Orange County, Ca which has the sexiest nurses. He actually loved going to the hospital just for that! When you are very sick with pneumonia, you learn there is so much positive to focus on in the hospital. You truly captured the positives with your well written song. You are a true joy to the world Charles. I wish you all God's blessings and that your health will be restored in full when you receive your transplant!

    Thanks Charles....Please hang in there...Life will feel so much better once you receive your transplant. But the bad news is, you will have far fewer hospital visits...so you won't see all the pretty nurses as often as before. A small price though to breathe easy....I'll keep you in my prayers! :)

    Fantastic mate. :) How you only got 1k followers? And how on earth did you get to film at the hospital??? LoL . I assume that's Southampton general? I have CF, was in the ward for a few weeks in April when my left lung collapsed a bit, keeps doing that. Not bad at all, I had one of the big rooms. :)

    I love musical sick people. Many youtube singing teachers say a healthy body is sooo important for singing and while it would be ideal, sick people can definitely do it too!

    You are cool Charles. Your singing voice is awesome. I do music, too. Working on some new stuff from bed that is ; / (I have Ehlers-danlos syndrome and it's gotten really bad in the past year all of a sudden) Hey, I was staying in Bournemouth with my good friend (whom I met through my awareness blogging actually) I was first diagnosed properly in the UK. Long story. But anyways, I'm just like you, trying to make a difference as much as I can, and do that creatively. www.girloutside.org
