~ * ~ Dear Santa, it has been such a long time, since I wrote to you- hope you recall me; still love the doll you left under the tree, yes, still have her and she is still sublime. I know you are busy with Christmas stuff, Santa, I have been sick and I am scared; and I am not sure I can be repaired, waiting for the results has been so rough. Do not care about gifts- but have a wish, my wish for Christmas is for the answer; for my doctor to tell me - no cancer, and if I hear those words it will be bliss. I have prayed to the Lord about all this, and know he will be with me whatever; holding my hand and letting go never, oh, bring my wish 'cause I fear the abyss. _______________________ December 2, 2019 Poetry/Enclosed Rhyme/Dear Santa Copyright Protected, ID 19-1204-903-02 All Rights Reserved.

OMG, Constance, I had no idea. I really really relate to this one, as I went through that whole waiting period, etc. I pray you do not have cancer. I know how scared you are feeling right now. I am so glad I read this. Congrats on your very well deserved win in the contest that hopefully will finally get onto an actual winner list all can view. I already sent two short emails. Let me send another to you. I have some things to tell you. Here is another big FAVE.

Hi Constance Your 2nd place in my contest. Sorry the contest didnt show placements on the page but it did send e-mails. I pray that you dont have cancer. That has got to be so scary. Thanks for entering my contest.

Greg, thanks for the contest and my great placement, I am waiting for a biopsy (there is a waiting list) was hoping to know by Christmas but that will probably not happen, that test will give the answer... so nothing I can do but wait. It is scary.
