The Big C

The big 'C', I heard

someone call it.

Another just whispered the word.

That we don't even dare to say cancer out loud

Gives it power it doesn't deserve.

So I'm giving that letter new
meaning

And refusing to give in to fear

By reclaiming the power for you and for me

And by saying these words loud and clear:

Let the C be for
Cure and Compassion

Let it stand for the Candles we light,

And a Chorus of voices shouting, You 'Can'!

To all who will take up this fight.

Let the C be for
Cash Contribution

Credit or Check will work, too.

Let it stand for Commitment and Checkups and Cheer,

And the Children Counting on you.

Let it mean that we know our

Creator

Is beside us each step of the way,

And remind us to Call on His strength and His love

And to Celebrate every new day.

To everyone facing this

Challenge,

I say it's a fight we can win.

Tell all who will listen that, starting today,

The C is for Courage, my friend.
