If I have just one more day I will fight forever Give up nothing Till the end of my days come I will not be afraid I will never turn my back and run This is the path chosen for me I may break but never be done Courageous I will have faith where there used to be none I will fight for me I will be strong This cancer cannot bind me Cannot beat me down It’s shadow will not dim my light Until I’m 6 feet in the ground With every single heartbeat………. I will rise up and defy all odds I will fight until forever If I have just one more day
I was diagnosed with stomach cancer on April 10, 2025. Until the call from the doctor, I believed it was never going to be me, I thought I cannot get cancer. Little did I know cancer does not discriminate. It does not look at your race, gender and especially age. I am only 48 years old and I have cancer.. It is still sinking in, but this poem is how I feel about my diagnosis and my journey, I will fight until the bitter end. Cancer will have to take me kicking and screaming, dragging me all the way. I am resilient, I am strong, I want to live! #CANCERSUCKS
