  • 'Moving forward'

    Published January 31, 2013

    I enjoyed a great couple of days with my son last week. It was wonderful to have some time with him before he went back to college

  • 'Seize the day'

    Published January 24, 2013

    I am now entering my second week of the phase I clinical trial. I am not sure if I am feeling a little crummy because I have the flu, or if I am experiencing side effects from the chemo.  At any rate, in true form, I am pushing ahead
