Living withcancer and rediscovering your dreams

[Guest guest]

I saw a neurosugeon today. I brought a stack of things from the internet for

him to look over if he was interested. Surprise, he did read them and

recommended WebMD.com over all others because he said he knew some of them who

wrote for other web sites. He knew them when he was either a student or a

professior and disagreed with most of what they said, but he thought Webmd.com

was the best. I went to websight after I returned home and started digging.

One of the things I found was this article written by Dave Katterheinrich,

reviewed by Dr. W. and was a feature article in the WebMD

magazine. I happen to like and believe in what he says:

I know some people see a cancer diagnosis as a death sentence. I actually see it

as a life sentence, because it's making me do things I would otherwise have put

off until retirement. I was a high school track and field star, and I used to

race motorcycles. I can't do those activities anymore. But I can do lots of

other things, like hunting, fishing, and archery. I just love to be outdoors.

I'm also restoring a '62 Corvette. I am fighting cancer, not just for family

and myself, but for the doctors and caregivers who have helped me as well.

Blessings,
