Relay
It was overcast and cloudy
When I got off that bus- the wind was blowing
Anxiety coursed throughout my body-
It HAD been a 5 hour ride home.
Then...
I saw my mother
Looking tired and scared.
Relay
He has cancer
Stage Four...
And it has reached his liver.
The doctor's sad face
Tells me...
It won't be much longer.
Three to six months.
Relay
Endless tears
Unanswered questions
Why him?
Why now?
Why cancer?
Had he ever done anything wrong?
No.... nothing wrong at all.
Relay
Recurring nightmares
Your body shaking so badly
You think that you'll break down.
But that's what scares you the most.
Never the one to open up easily...
You have finally changed that.
You have a voice... and it must be heard.
Relay
Hope finds your heart
Makes you finally smile.
You know what you have to do...
What you want to do-
For him...
And every other victim of cancer.
This WILL be done.
Relay
June 10th
Not knowing if he'll still be here.
You hold your head high
Knowing that you've made the right decision.
You're a woman on a mission
A daughter with a goal
With a burning desire.
