Good luck tomorrow dear friend! You will be in my thoughts and prayers. You were brave in the Vietnam War and have been for the past 5 years since you have been battling the effects of being exposed to Agent Orange. You have been through chemo and a stem cell transplant. My heart went out to you and your family when we learned last week that you were no longer in remission. Good luck tomorrow! I will leave you with the poem someone sent me when I was undergoing treatments:
I'll bet you've had about enough
of people telling you how strong you are
and how great you're doing
during this awful, difficult
period in your life.
Maybe you'd rather hear someone say
how much this sucks, how outrageous
and unfair it is.
Maybe you'd rather hear someone tell you
that you don't have to be strong
all the time.
Or that it's definitely okay
to curse fate and throw a tantrum or two.
So here I am to tell you
all that stuff and more,
to let you know where I stand,
which is right in your corner.
There's no right way or wrong way
at a time like this.
However you work through this thing
is immaterial to me,
All I care about is that
you ask for what you need,
lean on those who love you,
and try to trust me when I say
that you'll come out the other side.
