The Red Bandana

She wore a red bandana tied around her head A bandana of hope is what they said. The bandana was to hide the pain. ' and losing her hair she felt so ashamed'. But the bandana gave encouragement To the others all around For in this child love they had found. On the red bandana was imprinted LOVE, HOPE, AND FAITH And their faith would open up the gate. The gate to research to find the cure So the pain - these children would not endure. This child was diagnosed with a brain tumor At twelve months of age. Never realizing how her life would change. But she always had a smile Which would not go away, and with other children In the chapel they would pray. She had became like a star, big and bright. And had became the ' pediatric brain tumors' Guiding light. She is one of many who struggle from day to day In the hopes that research will find the way. Every year thousands of children being diagnosed With cancerous brain tumors With a short time to live. But with the doctors research A longer time they could give.
