My friend Frank was told that he has cancer and will live 4 months or 4 years. He is a strong person and believes in the words of God. Take for pending book release titled. "The Reason I Live".
What U Say They say - you got cancer They say you could live 4 months Or 3 years to another day What U say To what they say They say 10 percent has made it To that day, but what you say to What they say They say eat built up you strength Mo weight for a chemo date But what you say to what they say Walk, and exercise everyday Work those muscles is what they say But what you say to what they say Radical cells rebelled against healthy cells some are happy others going to jail That's what they say - but what you say To what they say Give it to a power promised never to leave you Nor to forsake you I remember what you say I say, what you say Not my way, but what you say I except what you say I say what u say so what you say

And I say: All hale to the Healer. An interesting write with good rhythm. The all-important question is what DO you say to what they say? Every circumstance has a different answer, and yet it is precisely that answer that makes us who we are, therefore, ultimately, we are made up of words. I think my name has too many syllables to pronounce. No more decision-making for me for a while. I'm on a word diet... gotta shrink this fat head of mine... --Charlie

There is a uniqueness about this poem, from my point of view, Stanley. And,whereas it's pretty good! "But what you say to what they say." In that case, I'd say, we should always allow God to have the last say. Keep up the good work, Stanley. God bless!!

Interesting write Stanely. Its a little different then I am use to but once I found your rythm I understood it very I think. A sort of challange to a friend to make the difference in his life? Nice write. I read your bio and saw that you were in an accident. Sending you healing light from the eternal flame for speedy recovery. Light and Love, Karen

I do not know if your friend wants compassion, but I will give it any way. Cancer has killed my family members and friends, I know the sickness the patient goes through. I am sorry he is sick may the Lord grant a painless illness.

GOD BLESS YOU BOTH
