The Big C

Dreaded words Doctor looks tired I cant lift my eyes My tears are mired How to tell a friend What's to do.... Think ill keep it secret For a day or two Scans and tests You knows best Hospital Galore I think what's it for... Back to the doc What does he say You don't need to return Cancers gone away....
