My Cancer #1 by <strong>Lesley</strong><br />
I knew that you were on your way<br />
But chose to ignore you day after day<br />
Until I found a mighty strength<br />
To divulge my symptoms and talk at length<br />
So many scans and further tests<br />
Endless trips to hospital, no time to rest<br />
Then confirmation of the word I feared<br />
You turned my strength to torrential tears<br />
Before I knew it, surgery was planned<br />
My life in the balance with skilful hands<br />
Ten hours in theatre, then intensive care<br />
They'd cut you out and made repairs<br />
I made it through and my journey begins<br />
To search for happiness and spread my wings<br />
You nearly took my life away<br />
But sunrise greets me as I start each day<br />
.... to be continued ....<br />
