Today

Today they said I had cancer.
They patted my leg and I could feel their sorrow in delivering this news.
Today I learned I was entering a new world, none of which I had ever dreamed of.
Today my life changed forever.
Today nothing will ever be simple or taken for granted.
Today I start my life over, every moment a blessing.
Today I learned to fight the foes in my own body.
Today I told my family I WOULD LIVE.
Today I gave up hope.
Today I regained my hope.
Today I gave up all hope.
Today I trusted in the Lord.
Today I trusted in my friends and family.
Today is never a constant, today is what I make it.
Every day is my only today.
