Dear Cancer


Dear Cancer:

HA! You did not win. You challenged me to a war and I persevered. So many battles have been fought between you and I. Some battles I have lost, too many. Some battles I won too though. Blood, tears, sweat all poured onto our battle fields creating a mixture that smelled of death. But I did not die. NO. I grew so much stronger, something you never expected from me.

I want to thank you dear Cancer. Thank you for showing me all the things I am capable of. Thank you for introducing me to death so that I can truly understand life. Thank you for the knowledge of true pain, now I can handle anything. You thought all these things were your weapons against me but they turned on you. Death and Pain made me grow stronger and become fearless!

Now I challenge you dear friend. I will fight you for as long as I live. All those who you have challenge are banning together to form the strongest army you could ever imagine. We have taken your weapons of death, fear, pain and sorrow and have molded them into our own. They make us strong with every day that passes.

We are coming Cancer, oh yes we are! We are strong, so much stronger than you could ever be. We are alias introduced to each other by our common enemy, YOU! Cancer your days are numbered because, we are always training to fight you. It will be soon and you will fall and your fall will raise us so high!


Help me with my battle against cancer by voting for my blog. My blog is the only cancer blog in the running but I need so many more votes to win. If my blog wins it will bring much needed attention to Cancer, Cervical Cancer to be specific! Thanks so much

Dear Meaghan,

I was introduced to your blog through your cousin Michelle, and having been reading it all afternoon. There are no words for your extraordinary experience...
