[hometext] => This poem was written after my first diagnosis with breast cancer .
[bodytext] => Ladies, Ladies, all over the place I have a story to tell about a problem we face It's something for years we've never discussed Always keeping quiet, keeping it on the hush I know ladies are supposed to be seen not heard But breast cancer is real, so lets spread the word It effects women of all ages and races All religions, different backgrounds,and different places Just because it's cancer doesn't mean the end of the world Sit back , relax, while we talk about this girl One day she was bathing and found a lump in her breast At first she paid it no mind, and continued on her quest But the knot never moved, which made her begin to worry She brought attention to her boyfriend, and called the doctor in a hurry He checked her, and decided that seeing a surgeon would be best So she did, decided to remove it and send it off for some test The test came back and she was surprised to hear She had breast cancer at 21, filling her life with fear But she didn't give up. kept the faith, and continued praying She listened to her doctors, and researched the things they were saying She had a lumpectomy, radiation, and chemotherapy By the same time next year, she was announced cancer free And still going strong, it's been 7 years now. She never gave up and knew she would make it somehow So the moral to the story is no matter how hard it may be We can beat it ,my sisters, just look at me [comments] => 1 [counter] => 152 [topic] => 19 [informant] => Shandra [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )
