Quotes

Quote Left "The poetry of cancer lies not in the disease itself, but in the resilience of the human spirit it unveils. Amidst the shadows of struggle, every heartbeat writes a verse of courage, every breath composes a stanza of hope, transforming pain into a testament of survival and strength." Don Iannone, Cancer caregiver, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio Quote Right
