Support has come to us from helpers
Sent by God. Sweet family, dear friends,
And fellow Christians I've never seen,
Will stand with us 'til the battle ends.

My life's mate is with me every step:
Biopsy, results, my fight with fear,
Mastectomy, then, limitations,
Check-ups. My husband is always near.

The latest words came at July's close
When the oncologist talked with me.
My husband and I smiled as we heard
Two words, precious treasure! "Cancer free."
