Poem | Cancer Resource Center of the Finger Lakes

Lost and Found

I have lost small parts of me.

I have lost holidays and whole days.

I have lost poetry.

I have lost decisions and ambition.

I have lost my hair and vanity.

I have lost walks and sleep and sunsets.

I have lost a season or two or three,

But Love,
I have always had you with me.

Received by CRC; “My sister in Connecticut is at the end we hope of two years of very intense treatment. She wrote thus poem to her husband. I asked her permission to share it. I believe many can relate.”

How to Help… When You Can’t

We all know how it feels when someone we are talking with is not really listening. A person with a cancer diagnosis needs to have a safe space to share thoughts and emotions, without feeling judged or diminished.

Too many emails can be overwhelming. Even reading the word “cancer” can be overwhelming sometimes! If you (like most of us) are trying to pare down your email subscriptions, we understand! But we still want to stay in touch, so here’s what we suggest:

1. Subscribe to our general mailing list above, then
2. Check your inbox for an email from us, and

3. Follow the link in the confirmation email to set your preferences.

This way, YOU get to decide which emails we send you, and how often. And we wish it went without saying, but we will NEVER share your personal information.
