What Cancer Can't Do

Cancer is so limited.
It cannot cripple love.
It cannot shatter hope.
It cannot erode faith.
It cannot eat away peace.
It cannot destroy confidence.
It cannot kill friendship.
It cannot shut out memories.
It cannot silence courage.
It cannot invade the soul.
It cannot reduce eternal life.
It cannot quench the spirit.
It cannot lesson the power of the resurrection.

(Poem borrowed from a poster in the infusion center at Hematology/Oncology. Sorry, I don't know the author.)

Vince, may you rest comfortably in the arms of the angels. Your smile and beautiful blue eyes will be remembered by everyone who ever had the pleasure of meeting you.
