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 I will never be done Courageous I will have all the faith where there used to be none I will fight for me 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 CANCER ***** Please make it go away

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 I will never be done Courageous I will have all the faith where there used to be none I will fight for me 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 CANCER ***** Please make it go away
UPDATE: for anyone who is curious or cares, UPDATE: August 4th, 2025 I was sent for my second PET Scan after completing four rounds of chemo and the news was wonderful!!!! my cancer has shrunk tremendously. All my labs look great so it’s on to surgery on September 2 and fingers crossed they will get out every last little bit of cancer. After a little bit of healing, I am having another 4 to 6 rounds of chemo and a new immunotherapy drug called Durvalumab, and they will continue that Drug for a total of 10 months I believe. Fingers crossed everything continues to go well and I want to thank everyone on here who gave me support on this journey you don’t know how much it lifts my spirit and helps me fight the good fight. Thanks again. See you on the flipside. I was diagnosed with esophageal Junction 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! Please help me if you can with my cancer journey, it is not cheap to get cancer! https://gofund.me/e7cbdb3e (copy, and paste this link in your browser or search, Gracie Stoops Missouri Valley, Iowa on go fund me) #CANCERSUCKS
