Fighting Cancer From Within

Life changes when they say you have luekemia. I am 2 months into treatment and am hoping to beat it soon. With a 15 month in tow its not easy. I cant be near him most of the time for fear of infection. Thank god my parents were visiting and are here for help. On most days I am functioning as a normal human being.
Today is a good day. My body is healing. I can sit straight again. Last three days were not. I was having terrible headache that started from my neck all the way to my head so that i could not move my head! I had to lie in the bed the entire day. So I sure appreciate the joy of being able to sit, to walk...something I had taken for granted all through my life:)
But life is good today. I do not have any treatment for the next three days. I have an intrathecal again on Tuesday. I am keeping my fingers crossed. If there is cerebrospinal fluid leak again, i will have an headache:(

Here is a poem dedicated to life
  The shining sun signalling the birth of new day
  The yummy smell of breakfast does little to keep hunger at bay
  The smile on your childs face
  The singing birds showing gods grace
   Oh how beautiful is it all!
   When you can stand up tall!
   Without a searing pain in your head and neck pulling you down
   And nausea make you vomit and frown
   Oh I have started enjoying small things again
   I have started living life again!

From where you come

 Not a revelation if I tell you from where you come shapes you. What I realized is that the quest for who am I starts after the basic needs are satisfied... for eg: for a child in a first world nation it starts from birth and encouragement from parents, for smart but poig student in a third world country it starts with getting through a premiere engineering school with a security of a job but for most of the world, the basic needs are so overpowering that it needs a lot of strength of character to go into the search of who am i
