Cancer My Story

It wasn't a dream It was my worst nightmare The worst thing you could get told You could lose your life I was sixteen one day at work I started to feel pains that really hurt Hurt so bad I wanted to scream and shout So I went to the hospital to get checked out Scan after scan it just showed blood A few months later revealed a lump At seventeen I got diagnosed When the doctor told me my face just froze He said it's renal cell let's get it out Quarter of my kidney I found myself without Two weeks weeks later received a letter It was from the surgeon it said I was better Two months later another appointment And that when to my disappointment Ewing's sarcoma is what is is That's the result from the histologist He said I'm so sorry we were wrong Nine months of chemo if you want to live long And that's when I just felt low Felt like there were nowhere to go Three weeks later I started my treatment For the next nine months were to be different Not knowing how you're going to feel A lot of drugs to help you heal You see two week later my hair fell out That's when my mind filled with self doubt At first I was scared to be bald Because all I could think was the names I'd be called Up and down I've had my lows The way I feel no-one knows I thought to myself I'm too young to die There's even been time's when it's made me cry On my seventh lot of chemo I felt my worst Walked out of hospital ignored the nurse I thought to myself I need a break Three weeks off I told them straight See in that time I picked myself up I felt a lot better Had made my mind up Finish my treatment Get it all done Look forward to the day When I say I've won I win
