You are weak, unwelcome
And I see you for
The disorganized
Mistake you are
You are not me

Of immune system swoops
You are weak
And I am learning
To see you
For what you are

Here's a Man Whose Parents are Currently Dealing with Cancer that Wants to Help Raise Funds For Cancer Research

Mary, our member from Ontario, Canada sent me the following note. I'm so very happy for you Mary. Your message is encouraging. Thanks.

Hi GMcP thanks for welcoming me, I'm a nurse breast cancer survivor diagnosed in 2005. The balloon pic was taken on the last day of radiation treatment. I do believe that cancer is a test of endurance, something to overcome. For me with regard to treatment it had a clear beginning and a clear end but will be something that I will always be vigilan

Nate's Immune System (cross posted for Judy)

Hey Everyone... Nate had his last chemo treatment of the first cycle. He has done extremely well through this first cycle. No telling what's in store for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th cycles. One step at a time!

Please know how much Nate appreciates the food, visits, cards, etc... He is overwhelmed with the support. However, during chemo treatments, his immune system is SERIOUSLY compromised. With that he is suseptible to colds, flus and germs in general. PLEASE, if you
