After the Diagnosis
Six-years ago...
6-years ago today, I began what would be a three-year trek to save my life. I had just received a diagnosis of an incurable lymphoma.
For the first year, it began commuting 1,800 each way, several times a month for a clinical trial, and ended up with me inpatient locally for chemo, followed by two years of maintenance infusions. By my own choice, I then ‘divorced ‘ my on
