Am I 39 or 51?
I’m trying to decide
It’s really not that dumb
Does surviving cancer add or divide
No: it’s not chemo brain
But a valid question in my mind
Does 6 years of cancer treatment
Take away your age or find
Six years you say and if you do
You have already forgotten
The three year CML sentence
I started in nineteen ninety seven (it was actually 95)…….
It must reduce my age
I’m thinking optimistic
Cause at the end of this, I’ll have big tits
and a stomach that’s ballistic
That makes me really 20
If I believe my own hype
Forty is the new twenty
And they have body’s that are ripe
That’s right you heard it here
It will be three years till done
The year 2020 is when the
Reconstruction real, it will become
Quite dismayed at time frames laid
But remembering my luck
I have the chance and ability
to take on and conquer all this muck
Some are not as fortunate to have the full attack
Some have no further options, and for some it does not work
For me, I’m blessed, they’re pulling all the stops
Wack, crap, zap, re-stack with a nip, tuck bonus quirk
Believing cure is the inspiration
And free boob job doesn’t go astray
Feeling like YOLO, You only live once
MUST have fun along the way
So don’t think a three year time frame
Is a verdict I must endure
It’s actually an honour, a privilege
To be happy, healthy, whole and still here
And don’t you dare feel sorry for me
I have proven I can keep up
Cause every treatment I have
Is turning me younger, like a pup
It might be Gin &Tonics
Or it’s dancing to 80/90’s songs
Whether it’s building a website or winning tennis!
I have more where that came from!
Happy Days xxx
