Wrote a poem ....

Back in 2013, when I was recently finished radiation treatment, I posted this on the "In Shock" thread in the "Just Diagnosed" forum.

I had it in my phone, and managed to accidentally delete it, but I didn't want it to be lost, so I searched out the original post, and I am sticking it on here as well

Hey guys, I am not much given to writing "poetry", but this just popped out, so I thought I'd share:

A club that nobody wants to join; exclusive, selective, we, the lucky ones? I think not!

Yet out of the darkness a nourishment flowers-

Human kindness, compassion in the wee small hours.

"The Three a.m. club"! - it is true what they say:

Things ARE much worse without light of the day!

But here, on this website is always on hand

A woman, a comrade, who WILL understand ...

Exactly the feelings we strive to explain;

The fear and the sorrow, the tears and the pain,

But also the moments of triumph and bliss.

Where else but on BC.org find we this?

For some it's a bandaid to help while we heal;

A place we can rant, swear, express how we feel.

For others it may become oh, so much more:

A path paved with friendships to last and endure!

So to all my dear friends, and to those yet to meet,

I send love, and a hope for your healing complete.
