'Twas the Night Before Chemo

'Twas the night before chemo

and all thru the house,

not a creature was sleeping

not even a mouse...

Brad working downstairs

Dane is his bed,

Marley reading by me

while I blog in my head...

Fourteen hours left of clean blood

the thought is disturbing,

for tomorrow will change me

it is really perturbing...

I am nervous of pain

I am nervous of drugs,

Luckily, I have love and support 

Kisses and hugs...

Side effects, screw them!

they won't effect me,

I am stronger than they are

I beat them you'll see!

I know I can do this

even though I don't want to,

what choice do I have

but to see it all through...

You say I have a good attitude

and that I am really strong,

besides cancer I am young and healthy

You all can't be wrong...

Family and Friends

my strength comes from you,

I will sit there tomorrow 

and take all that goo...

For next year will be different

I'll be normal and done,

I will back in the game

for many, many years to come.....

Good Night.
