Be hospitalized again for final stage July 18. 2007

Manner 

My friend recommended that I transfer to a different hospital. However I would like to continue to take this treatment at this hospital, because I have already asked the doctors to take care of me until the end. This as meant to be, and it is a basic human decency. I cherish my life and it is my decision to keep my word. I have to accept all the consequences. I know that there are other hospitals with special equipment, various skills, and techniques for cancer treatments. But I already chose this hospital and the doctors, and conveyed that my life is in their hands. Decisions are always important in one’s life. People are responsible for the consequences of their choices. This is the golden rule.

Chemotherapy has started

I’m going to a mortal stage.

I have had a day of anticancer chemotherapy. There are three different strong medications.

Even when my number is up, I still stand in the ring until my last breath

When you want to see during the day time,

You can find me among sea breeze.

When you want to see me during the night time,

You can find me among the constellations.

I’m a sea-hunter. I’ll be roaming around the Southern Cross and the Big Dipper.

I will always be watching over you
