Living with a slow-growing brain cancer.
There are more than 500 posts here. Use this search to look for something specific. Good luck!
A note about my oldest posts: I began blogging about brain cancer in 2008, at age 29. I had no background or knowledge about healthcare when I started. Please excuse typos and other misconceptions. What you read here is me in real time, like a time capsule.
Open thread: What does "supporting a cure" for brain cancer look like to you?
To me "supporting a cure" is being an advocate with the National Brain Tumor Society. I enjoy public policy and am a fan of the West Wing (which qualifies me to talk to Congress) (not really), so being an advocate is how I am supporting a cure.
