Jervis Pearson Ward, Nottingham City Hospital, February 2009.
I have walked amongst giants hewn from solid oak and granite
Reduced to splinters and sand
And women so ravaged that all that is left is their beauty from within.
We are the cancer community – a brotherhood so strong
That we will kick the arse of this vile disease
And god help anyone who gets in our way!
We may be dribbling, incontinent, sometimes vague
But we are on a mission that only we truly understand
So please remember that when we appear to take no prisoners!
