The daffodil symbolizes Spring, rebirth, hope and new beginnings. For some it is a new beginning of a Cancer-Free future. The Cancer Society has organized Daffodil Days where they offer daffodils in exchange for a donation. Each spring I think about the daffodils and those still fighting cancer. The spring time is particularly important to me because that was when I was pronounced Cancer Free. So make sure you get out there and purchase your daffodils throught the Cancer Society.

Sara,
I thought you might enjoy this poem...
The Daffodils
by William Wordsworth (1770 - 1850)
I wander'd lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host of golden daffodils,
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced, but they
Outdid the sparkling waves in glee:—
A poet could not but be gay
In such a jocund company!
I gazed, and gazed, but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
YOu are so cute. I'm so sorry you went through this as a kid and for all those out there who are still going through it. I will now love daffodil's even more. Thank you:)
