It seems that I can’t manage to get sick when there’s actually going to be a doctor available to help me. My recent episode last Wednesday night meant that I’d spend a long four day weekend before I could talk to my neurologist. So…I called my neurologist’s office first thing this morning [...]

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving has always been my favorite holiday, free from commercialism and focused on family and giving thanks for the many blessings in our lives.
We picked Amanda up at PLU yesterday afternoon and stopped at Tacoma Boys to pick up a [...]

While I can’t enjoy coffee any more, I liked this photo when it popped up on Flickr so I thought I would share it with you.
I recently brought my NHL blog to a close, having put that chapter of my life behind me, but I still have things to share. [...]

Just a note of thanks to everyone for the response to my recent blog post. My UPS man delivered two boxes of lemon green tea yesterday and just as poppies have been a symbol of hope for me over the last two years, I think that a cup of lemon green tea has come [...]

“Midway along the journey of our life I awoke to find myself in a dark wood.”
In 2007, at 45 years of age, I awoke to find myself in a dark wood, diagnosed with non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. I had always been healthy and I had lived a healthy lifestyle so this news came as quite [...]

I saw my neurologist yesterday, the first opportunity that I’ve had to see him since my most recent seizure in September. We don’t know why I’m having seizures so we don’t know how to treat them. We simply have to try a variety of things and, if I don’t have seizures, we go [...]

It’s a beautiful sunny morning and, as usual, I sit at my desk, looking south, watching the planes fly east, wondering where they are going. Some are headed to Europe and I long to be on one of them. Longing for a change of scenery beyond the ever changing cloud formations or the [...]

I’ve been hooked on the Tour de France for the last two weeks, amazed at the incredible shape that these athletes are in. When you consider Lance’s battle with cancer, his 4 years away from the sport and the fact that he broke his collar bone earlier this spring, the fact that he is [...]

I saw Harry Potter last night…the best Harry Potter movie so far!
I’ve lost two more pounds, down to 111 lbs this morning, so I’ll be force feeding myself all day….as I watch the Tour de France. I’m addicted!

I didn’t start this blog to whine….I started it so that I could stay in touch with family and friends as I battled cancer. Along the way, I’ve also been able to help other cancer patients around the world and that’s been very rewarding. I want my blog to be an accurate portrayal [...]
