Two from Eric"Rosie" a great song written for a family friends daughter who has cerebal palsy.regardless of what we suffer in ill health this song fits.I know from personal expierence people talk as if your not there OR your invisible.
Second song "Belle of Broughton"
a song about Erics Gran.
if you change "Belle of Broughton" to your Gran it fits so well

Never heard this one Davie. My middle grand daughter has C.P. (she was 10 weeks premature). It's her arms and legs otherwise unaffected. She's a true beauty as well, and a determined wee lass - she will get there. But, oh how poignant the words are, and like you I know what it is for her and I to be ignored. Thanks Davie.

@Drewhelen Glad you like this song by Eric and of course it will men more to you with your grand-daughter with C.P.

Cheers davie

Many thanks for posting. I have seen Eric many times 'live' in Australia. We are so lucky to have him living in Australia. What a songwriter! All hail Eric.
