The Silent Predator

Cancer, why do you come ?  You creep in slowly so no one knows your're here.A silent predator , you wait to act causing carnage and misery as you launch your attack, never caring if people survive, they desperatley want to stay alive.you try and give us no hope . When all we want is to stay afloat.But you do get defeated that much is true. There is a good survival rate and fight you the surgeons do !

We all know someone who's been struck with this disease , families and friends the list never ends , it comes along at randam , and strikes out of the blue , you never know if it's your turn ,does the finger of fate point at you ! 
Stay positive and strong and imagine when it's gone , for one way or another it's time to move along .
