Sometimes, when people find themselves in the hospital, a bit of levity is good medicine.

With complete ridiculousness and total lack of dignity, I offer this get-well greeting card.

My grandson calls me Pops. My rap fans call me. . . Popsicle.

Hey, has today not been goin your way, you’re in the hospital for some surgery?                             

It may be an unexpected situation, but you’re not alone and that’s cause for celebration.

How are you feeling? Has pain been stealing your physical peace and you’re looking for release?

I know it can hurt; it can sting like for real! I bet you scared and wonderin’ if you’ll heal.

You’re in a good place. That joint rocks. I’ve been laying down prayers for the skills of your docs.

So try not to worry and don’t be stressed cuz I’m confident your nurses are blessed.

I’m down on my knees begging the Lord please. . .

“Slap some grace on your child, make it now, not in a while

Send your spirit to cover that room. Pour abundant grace and dispel negative gloom.

Be in the body, but also the mind. Grant peace to endure this troublesome time.”

Now, your chaos is big but try not to fear it, because you are surrounded by the Holy Spirit.

In the book of Mark for the beggar Bartimaeus, Jesus recognizes faith and comes to be with us.

Be patient, have courage, it’s gonna take some time. But you ain’t alone and your soul is fine.

So count your blessing when you get up and you’re dressing.

Then before you lay down you’ll smile more than you frown,

even though you wearing a silly hospital gown.
