I hope and pray that you will make it for many years to come! Doctors make mistakes and they are not always right! I would love to see you beat all odds! Great write bringing up your condition and showing your hope(even if it's not from the doctors!)! Awesome Work! I hope you do well in the contest!

Hello dear poet ! How are you Carolyn? This Senryu of yours touches the heart my friend, having lost several souls in my life to ill which was a, sad waste to see them slowly before me pass on. I pray dear one that you are fairing well. You are surly in Noah and my prays dear Carolyn! Please let us know how you are doing...Noah says, "thank you for the lovely card !" Have a pleasant weekend Carolyn....much love, james
