DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Thought wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learned, too late, they grieved it on it's way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Dylan Thomas

Those of you who remember my post abou my Cancer situation will be glad to know I'm doing well. I sleep a lot & I've got the skin-head thing going. I've lost no weight & my spirits are high. I may be changing Dr.s within the same center thanks to a suggestion from a friend here.

Stick with me y'all. God & I & all my friends are gonna whup this thing yet!!!

I read this poem in high school. I it SO!

Battling cancer is much more emotional than physical at times. My prayers are with you and I be looking for your future updates! Hang in there and hold onto all that is good in your life!

Hi David - good to see you posting, glad you are doing well. Put some sunscreen on that shiny head of yours, don't want to sunburn it, or keep a hat on, okay? Seriously, no serious sunburns.

Switch doctors if you need to, get the best care you can, and whip this stuff. Take care.

GOD HAS SHINED YOUR WAY PILL,,THATS GREAT!

Lets see you bald head now!!!

Just read thru these again and realized somethin'
Y'know that bright light some of ya talk about, well
{That's m'Angels w/ Blazin' Swords}
I don't know how many's there, but they're all around me in my daily life. I get things I need. Things happen when I need them to. People (angels?) appear RIGHT when I need them.

OK, I'm bald, I sleep more & eating is more of a challenge than it was. I haven't lost weight.

Prognosis was 1 yr. +/- w/ treatment.

Treatment has had abt. 5 wks delays.

1/3 of that year is gone and I don't feel any worse than I do?

I'm doing a lot of complementary, natural supplement things, too.
Wed. I see a Doc who treated the brother of someone here. The guy was not expected to make it & now is in total remission.

If this Doc has a personality & any positivity (I deserve that much) I'm there!

Thanx everybody

Your positive attitude & your faith will surely see you through. Good luck & God Be With You.
