Aching for Tomorrow Poems

These poems by an oncologist deal with the emotional impact of disease, suffering, and death. Because of his close contact with cancer, Dr. Meyskens is able to bear first-hand witness to the suffering of family and friends who are losing their loved ones or watching them face death an saying goodbye. There are also poems of recovery, remission, and hope; but in the long run the poet-doctor must be honest about mortality, whether he's speaking or writing to a patient or the patient's caring circle (which would include friends and family, but also the physician himself.)Meyskens, Frank L., Jr. is the author of 'Aching for Tomorrow Poems', published 2007 under ISBN 9781564744685 and ISBN 156474468X.
