Frank Lamb Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Here's a poem I got in one of my cards that I wanted to share with you. Cancer is limited It cannot cripple Love It cannot shatter Hope It cannot corrode Faith It cannot destroy Peace It cannot kill Friendship It cannot suppress Memories It cannot silence Courage It cannot invade the Soul It cannot steal eternal Life It cannot conquer the Spirit Connie, Frank Lambs wife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jyoung20 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Thanks Connie. Sometimes I forget what cancer cannot do. God Bless You!! Jamie By the way, We are giving an award at Plying for a Cure in Frank's memory. This has been donated by a member of the board. Is it okay to use his story? and if so could I get a picture from you?

crystleshoe Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I love that poem. I hung it up in my moms room when we thought she would be coming home because I wanted her to know that cancer cant destroy everyhting. My dad still has it hanging.

slinaresholz Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Hello Frank! That was a nice poem you put on the site. I had half of the right lung removed Jan. 2004. I refused chemo and radiation as I wanted to feel as well as I could. Plus they said there was only a five percent chance chemo and radiation would help. I am feeling pretty well yet. Miraculously my cat scan last Jan. and chest xray in September were okay. They said I had stage 3A and found a bad lymph node in the mediastum when they did surgery. I sometimes wonder if the chemo and radiation doesn't just shrink tumors temporarily. You certainly were a lot braver than me to go through the treatments. Hope you are eating well and getting around okay. My cousin had chemo for breast cancer and now she has bad trouble with her eyes because of it. She is only about 58. Everyone has a twin and you look a lot like my friend's husband Terry. Behave yourself! Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinaresholz Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Very sorry, Connie! I did not know Frank had passed away. He was a very caring person. I haven't been on this page for a while. Hugs for you and your family! Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
