The Cancer Call

I went to the hospital, for a simple test. I came home,and became a burden,and a pest. They sent me to a surgeon, for a little breast exam. I came home,as meek as alittle lamb. I used to think,I was home free,until this cancer,had invaded me. I will stay,and fight,and fight, andtill this cancer,is out of sight. I can't tell you,how scared I feel. Or when I might eat,my very last meal. When I leave,and you miss my face. Please beleive,I'm in a better place. Remember me always, cause I love you all. Please know it's me, when you hear me call.
