Welcome,
You’ve joined the club,
The cancer club I mean,
Don’t worry there is no fee,
Non annual subscription,
Here you’ll find others like you,
Frightened, anxious and worried,
You can find new friends,
When your old friends pass you by,
And here you can learn to cry,
Because sometimes crying not easy,
But it’s what you need to do,
And it’s easier with others,
Oh, yes and by the way,
There is one more thing to mention,
I’m afraid membership is for life,
However long that is.
