Chemical Warfare

Picture my liver with innumerable tumors - they are all lit up and alive. They are looking to attack other organs. They are mean and nasty and want the whole body to be under their seige. The body is the battlefield and although they are confined to the liver they grow stronger as they wait for the right time to takeover. Sometimes they are cammoflaged by sleep but they still wait. They hide in the trenches. They are aware of their enemy. They know the everyother week schedule of counter-attacks. Chemotherapy-a version of agent orange. It's chemical warfare. It will fight the tumors. It will push them back. It will weaken them. The tumors are afraid. What a picture!!! I wish I could draw it on paper. Tumors retreatreating, chemotherapy attacking. Who will win this war? And at what price will the war continue?
