Pink Saturday cancer awareness month
Hi All
As this month is cancer awareness month I thought I would focus this pink Saturday post on it. What is it about the word cancer that strikes that aching fear into our hearts. Even writing it is a struggle for me. There is no getting away from it and unfortunately most of know someone that has gone through cancer, or not made it through cancer.

I wanted to try and focus on the side of cancer that brings strangers together. That makes someone love life to the absolute full, that appreciates everything, that takes someone through the dark into the light. I found this poem on the net and it said everything I wanted to so simply yet profoundly
Cancer is so limited that:
It cannot cripple love
It cannot shatter hope
It cannot corrode faith
It cannot destroy peace
It cannot kill friendship
It cannot suppress memories
It cannot silence courage
It cannot invade the soul
It cannot steal eternal life
It cannot conquer the spirit
