The Wei-zard of Oz
The last two months have been a full spectrum of emotions. We started 2026 with pure joy, celebrating my mother-in-law’s 70th birthday. Days later was usual scans, Larry’s shenanigans, so many tears, and lots of talking and processing. Then it was the distinct promise… Continue Reading “The Wei-zard of Oz”
Larry, Curly, No Mo
As scan season approached at the end of the year, conversations kicked up about what my future scan schedule might look like. I’ve been healthy with no evidence of disease for over 8 years now, so it was probably time to space things out… Continue Reading “Larry, Curly, No Mo”
EIGHT
During my two week post-surgery recovery period, I built this website. I told the story as it was unfolding because I was at a total loss and didn’t know what else to do. I had skipped into surgery on Thursday absolutely stoked to get… Continue Reading “EIGHT”
SEVEN
It’s been well over a year now since I’ve written anything of significance, aside from an Instagram comment or meaningful text here and there. Don’t ask me how. I truly have no idea. I used to find myself here so often. Helpless. Lost. Needing… Continue Reading “SEVEN”
Six
July 6, 2017. Six. Whole. Years. This morning I got up and got ready for work, grabbed celebratory Starbucks on my way in, and settled into my desk for the day. July 6 is usually a day I take off work and many years… Continue Reading “Six”

For every ameteur video project, there’s a whole set of bloopers that should follow. We ended up with over six hours of content to comb through and edit, so honestly it’s a little shocking that this blooper reel isn’t longer. But nonetheless, ridiculousness ensued…without… Continue Reading “Behind the Treatment Mask: Bloopers”
Onward & Upward
What do you do when the nest beneath you begins to give way? The short answer is you fly… …which is fine if you’re a bird. And you have wings. And you know how to fly. Or you have instincts that fire and launch… Continue Reading “Onward & Upward”
Rest For The Weary
Ive had words on my heart for some time now, but much like our prayers sometimes, these words have felt more like groans rather than comprehensible thoughts. The blank page is a scary thing for me these days. It was my solace in the… Continue Reading “Rest For The Weary”
2 years Goneda
On July 6, 2019, I celebrated two years of no Glanda and no cancer. Immediately after my surgery two years ago, I was SO SURE that I was healed and that the whole benign-to-malignant-flip-in-the-operating-room situation was a miracle that none other than Jesus had… Continue Reading “2 years Goneda”
