I went through chemo myself, years ago. I lost all my hair, and would you know it, I have a scalp full of skin tags. I looked absolutely horrible, I would get a phone every day from the nurse reminding me that the immune system is inexistent, and a cold would be fatal, but I never gave up. Neither did my darling husband give up on me. COURAGE. IF YOU THINK YOU CAN, YOU WILL MAKE IT. Think even more positively, and it will happen. Never give up on yourself!
God Bless you,
Gianina

You have drizzled the warm oil of a muses magic into my waiting palms and the manna of my words abound- wow. That is poetry at its finest! You are an inspiration to me - not only your writing, but the strength and bravery you show in your words even though you are probably weak and scared. That, my friend, is what I call being 'ninja'.

This is what poetry is all about for me. It's intense, haunting, beautiful, lyrical and puts everything together and pounds it into the reader's head. It's the truth and I hope not your truth; however, it's someone's agony and you have made the poetic gesture in the telling! Great work and I don't have a six to spend!

Nicely done in a free verse on this never to soon to write your memoirs, battling cancer or some other killing plaque. Thanks for sharing the thoughts on this and have a great day

This poem touched my heart. My best friend just finished her chemo and experienced the bodily and emotional havoc you have described. Your writing is exquisite. I look forward to reading more of your work.

There is lots of sincerity and emotion in this lovely poem. I enjoyed, even the bad haircut, particularly in me with my wavy and ruthless hair. Welcome to fanstory.

A fantastic love story that you have shared and I have several friends that have ALS and I know they have experienced the same feelings that you have expressed with their spouses. You profoundly expressed the feelings of two individuals that know what was on earth is just the beginning and the future is yet to behold. I hope that makes sense. This is the first letter/diary poetry I have read or commented on.

This is a very heart wrenching poem about suffering and longing for a loved one that is soon to pass on to be with God. The style of poem created a vision of a heartbroken husband. Very well done.
