A cancer diagnosis is devastating. The podcasts presented here are a chronicling of my experience in receiving a AML (Leukemia) diagnosis and my subsequent treatment and experiences in dealing with my cancer. It is my intention to help others by providing hope and inspiration. I am amazed at each and every new day that I have been given. Please listen with an open mind and heart. Share with others who may need to hear directly from someone who continues to face down this deadly killer.
If you or someone you care for has been given a cancer diagnosis this podcast is presented to provide a chronological voice log of my own treatment for AML, a form of Leukemia. Each episode will provide information that is intended to uplift and realistically explain what is being done for me and how I'm responding, physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Please listen and share with others.

This situation is double as frightening because it's the entire global population all at once. The actions being taken by government, business and healthcare are unprecedented. The news broadcasts are ceaseless. Yes, I am afraid.
