CANCER PATIENCE – WAITING LISTS - SURVIVAL RATES INCREASE

Nobody should have to wait to find out if they have Cancer or not. All waiting achieves is to increase the chance of the cancer spreading and the expense of the treatment. Waiting lists for Cancer needs to be exterminated – it makes no sense. Read an Article from The Daily Telegraph about the success of treating Lung Cancer when caught early. The UK Cancer survival Rate is the lowest in Europe? is it because the medical profession has learnt that catching and diagnosing Cancer is the best and perhaps most effective way of Cancer Treatment. Chemotherapy and all forms of Cancer Treatment are more effective when an early detection is made.

I WAIT FOR CANCER
I wait,
For Cancer,
I debate
With Cancer,
I stare
At Cancer,
I wait,
For Cancer.

I stand up,
To Cancer,
Cancer Patience,
Cancer anger,
I wait for Cancer,
I stare at Cancer.

CANCER POEMS - RUNNING NEAR THE CLIFF EDGE
I was walking by the road,
That lead me to a hill,
I climbed the hill to find a cliff,
Where I could walk alone,

The sky was blue like years before,
My mind was clear – at ease,
This Cancer that controlled my life,
Has set me body free,

I ran among the whitened clouds
That ran above the sea,
I felt the warmth of Gods love
Inside the pain in me,

The sky was blue like years before,
My mind was clear – at ease,
This Cancer that controlled my life,
Had set my body free.

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.

HOPE IS A THING WITH FEATHERS - CANCER WRITING AND INFORMATION

Cancer is one of the worlds Greatest Killers, just the very word 'Cancer' can send shivers through anyones body. Some Cancers are obviously more aggressive than others, but all are serious and all require serious treatment. Preventive measures are very important, including saying 'NO' to smoking. Exercise and eating well can do the body a whole lot of good. If you want information on the facts and figures of cancer go to 2008 Cancer Facts and Figures and read. It is estimated more than seven million people will die this year because of Cancer - this is a sad statistic that should not be a reality.

HOPE IS A THING WITH FEATHERS - EMILY DICKINSON
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.

I've heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

INFORMATION ON IRISH CANCER SOCIETY - PLUS POEM BY EUGENE O'NEILL

The Goals of the Irish Cancer Society in Ireland, is to lead the way in creating an excellent service for Cancer Patients in Ireland. Prevention, early detection and cutting waiting times for vital tests and various research will be of the utmost importance.

A very high priority for the Irish Cancer Society is the implementation of a vigorous campaign on 'No Smoking', especially for young people and teenagers who get hooked early on and find it difficult to give it up at a later date, thus increasing the risk of Lung Cancer and other Cancers related to smoking. Information on Cancer is also made readily available to any Irish citizen as well as a host of resources and services including excellent hospital care, community based nursing and hospice services.

WRITING AND POETRY
This poem is a poem of Hope and Beauty. It tells us that the good days do come back, especially if we have hope. We need always keep hope close to our hearts.

FREE – EUGENE O’NEILL
Weary am I of the tumult, sick of the staring crowd,
Pining for wild sea places where the soul may think aloud.
Fled is the glamour of cities, dead as the ghost of a dream,
While I pine anew for the tint of blue on the breast of the old Gulf Stream.

I have had my dance with Folly, nor do I shirk the blame;
I have sipped the so-called Wine of Life and paid the price of shame;
But I know that I shall find surcease, the rest my spirit craves,
Where the rainbows play in the flying spray,
'Mid the keen salt kiss of the waves.

Then it's ho! for the plunging deck of a bark, the hoarse song of the crew,
With never a thought of those we left or what we are going to do;
Nor heed the old ship's burning, but break the shackles of care
And at last be free, on the open sea, with the trade wind in our hair.

THE NATURE OF CANCER - ANSWERS NEED QUESTIONS

This was not the life I expected,
In one minute it changes,
That is the nature of Cancer,
It changes your life in one second,
Making all your plans go up in smoke,
Words
I need more words,
To express the pain in me,
To arrest the pain in me,
Seattle is such a nice city,
I never went to New York,
But I have seen the lights of Broadway,
As I stare out this large mirror,
Searching for answers,
Desperately needed answers,
That no one can give me,
Except cancer itself.

CANCER WILL NEVER WIN - NEVER GIVE UP ON RECOVERY

The time has come,
Perfectly willing to accept that I am leaving,
This Cancer, this disease, this terror,
It has consumed all I got,
It has robbed me of my dignity,
And it will soon rob me of my life,
But it will never win.

THIS SURVIVORS TUNNEL OF CANCER

I am in Darkness,
And the world has forgotten who I am,
But my God - who I have turned to time and again,
Will never forget me,
The Chemotherapy is warming my veins,
My hair is almost gone,
There is light somewhere down this tunnel of cancer,
Where the darkness of cancerous thoughts does not exist
There I will have no more suffering,
I will be at peace,
I will be at peace.
