The song brings us through their highs and lows of their journey from getting to know about their diagnoses to how it has affected their life. The upbeat and backing guitar track gives us an insight how the duo had to make changes their daily life and the changes they have to make ever since the diagnosis. A nice way to create awareness about an issue without dismissing the seriousness of the issue.

We wish the duo best of health and to all of you out there, please take care and remember to do your yearly check ups.
