No cancer

Are you sure

Come back in 4 months

all clear on the home fronts

~

Can I stop the worry

no, but it is no hurry

it isn't a flurry

of worry, or a scurry

no siree

~

The scan wasn't blurry

It wasn't all furry

time to eat some curry

I haven't been all slurry

I would love a ride on a surrey

Okay, enough, I'm sorry!

Authors note: Relief! And then, come back in 4 months after 11 years of coming back in 4 months isn't all that hopeful, more worry! Just not today, maybe in 4-months!
