I haven’t written in a long time because I couldn’t write, spell, or sometimes speak because of a rare side effect called radiation recall. I still have trouble with most words and sentences, but I am trying to write again. I guess I know I don’t know what to write about. It was January when

Most of you who read my blogs are from my hometown but I do have few “fans” out there that are not from Woodbury. I’ve had people from actually all over who have contacted me and my parent about my cancer journey. I’ve had people from Canada all the way to Washington state, but also

A New Year has come around, which is great! It means I beat the odds once more and I lived another year like the doctors didn’t think I would. They basically told me in my last appointment, “You should celebrate by enjoying the holidays with your family.” I don’t know if I’m just a pissed

As far back as I can remember, a lot of my memories come from the beauty shop, akaTurning Heads, my mom’s hair salon. Growing up, Mom and Dad just had to make things work as far as work schedules went. Dad had to go to work at night, so I had to go to work

Sometimes people tell me that I’m the strongest person that they have met. They admire my strength to go through the battle I’m going through. I’m not strong. In fact, I’m very weak and puny, like a little field mouse running from a tractor, trying to find a way out of a field that’s being

Hello Jesus, I don’t know if this is a “cool” thing to do or an a “appropriate” thing to do, but for me I feel like it’s the way I can actually talk to You properly and pray and mean it. When I pray like we do in church I get so distracted if it’s
