On my Anniversary......
I'd love to say this is the Anniversary of 6 years of marital bliss. Or maybe 6 years of having my own home. Instead its 6 years since my cancer diagnosis. 5 years was the big marker for Ovarian Cancer, I'm supposedly now "cured". Why doesn't my heart feel cured though?
I don't feel much for a long journal entry tonight. Instead I'll just post some old poems from my old website. Things written during my treatment. Hope you enjoy.
Bald
Have you ever been....
BALD?
Utterly completely and absolutely bald
No hair on my head to comb
No eyebrows. No,not even a line.
And the eyelashes, gone too.
So everything got in my eyes.
No nose hairs, Hello boogers and everything else.
Who knew nose hairs were so important?
Ok, so some of it was good
No armpits and legs to wax
And finally baby soft skin
And no nicks from the razor
But I missed my hair
The shampoo, the combs,
The razors, the plucking,
The protection......
No questions
No stares
Just hair

Some Days I Feel So Free.....
Some days I feel so free
I feel as if God has lifted me to a new place
I fought the demons and won
I have a new testimony to tell
Out of the sickness came discovery
Out of the treatment came knowledge
Out of the healing came hope
Some days I feel so free
I feel that my strength has been tested and uplifted
I have the scars to show the fight
I have the life to prove I won
Out of the patience came endurance
Out of the test of time came faith
Out of the pain came His love
Some days I feel so free........
