Jean,

I am going to post this at my desk at school and at home. Thank you for the war cry you have presented.

Thank you Marie and Amelia,
Yes, I wrote the poem.
I had taken a freind's sister to chemo treatment the other day. As I sat with her and looked around the treatment room into the faces of the other patients and care givers I felt this emotion of fighting back.

When I got home I sat down and just started to jot down my feelings.

Kind Regards,
Jean
