All I seem to hear in days gone by,
Is how the evil has taken to many,
I don’t know how many times I will cry,
How many stars do we have to bury.
So much talent that has been taken already,
Cancer is the cause, it’s just so evil
People taken that are not even ready,
Because of the Evil that some call the devil.
It’s the knowing that we all leave with nothing,
No amount of wealth will sustain us against cancer,
Even if our life has meant something,
The end is the same in our answer.
So what can we learn from all of this sadness,
Maybe today is our last, who has the answer,
Please God help me to understand all this madness,
Please help me to live a life without cancer.

I recently read a book that dealt with pain and suffering. It looked at how societies, philosophers and theologians had looked at this through the centuries. It was thought provoking. People without any love or affection will feel little loss. Feeling grief or loss then to some extent is additional confirmation of your love. Keep on writing. We are here…ARH

I hate cancer -but I also know the power it has upon the people that draw near. Hurtful -yet can bring beauty beyond the knowing of mankind.

It must just be one of those days Fonz… I’ve been asking ‘why’ most of the day today. I love the poem and as you know it resonates with me quite well. I am extremely honored by your thanks for encouraging you. However I seem to think it actually is the other way around. You have added to my determination to beat the odds in so many ways that I could not count them. I don’t want to lean on you too hard… but you have held me up on several occasions already and we’ve only known one another for a short time… my gratitude to you for staying strong… I know that there are days when we wonder… what’s the point… we’re tired… our minds are weary… then, I find a comment from a caring soul… a post that echoes in my mind that touches my heart… and then I know why… and at least a portion of my weariness disappears…
Rest well tonight my friend…

Thank you for giving me strength in return. I tell you this there are not many that give back and say thank you. It’s not because they are ignorant ( maybe I am being to kind ) but maybe they just feel I don’t need to hear it. They maybe have not felt what we do my friend because we have depth in our exsperiences. I never want thanks or gratitude just that people are encouraged. But hearing your words just strengthen me. I have included my email as promised in my last blog. Feel free to use it. I will be off line all day as going out with my brother. Days adventure there will be a blog there I am sure. Thanks Michael.. For being you 😊😍😊

I’m sick of it too. I hate cancer…very much. Too see the patients I care for wither away by it…to read about other bloggers suffering from it and conquering it…to hear about people in the world taken away by it. It’s just too much. 😦
