Cancer crept in slowly...at first...
Only to provide time for lessons to be learned.
Needing nothing more than love,
Natural, genuine friendship has grown quickly.
Exceptional, insightful, and truthful,
Candid conversations have spoken directly to my heart.
Time is ticking quickly to a screeching halt,
Insidious disease stealing precious moments,
Only to strengthen my resolve.
Never will this story be silenced.

Author's note: Dedicated to my dear friend, Kim, who continues to fight the battle.

Thanks to all. Watching this progression is so difficult and, as a survivor, I want to be able to stop this. Unfortunately, I'm powerless. :(
