My husband Shannon and I were both on the evening news last night talking about the need for healthcare reform and young adult cancer. Are you tired of me posting, writing, and speaking about the healthcare reform bill? I am. But too bad because cancer is a dead horse that needs beating and by passing [...]
Sometimes the phrase “life or death” is not a cliché. Even more surprising than the words “you have cancer” were the words from the secretary when I tried to make a appointment for a second opinion: “You have no insurance.” I left my job three weeks prior to my diagnosis to transition to a new [...]
Mac and cheese? Plain pasta? M & M’s? I’d love to create a list of tips based on what you did and didn’t want to eat during cancer treatment and why. The why part is particularly interesting because it may help other patients figure out what to eat while they’re addressing similar food challenges. I [...]

Water (H2O) ionizes the hydrogen (H +) and hydroxyl (OH-) ions. When these ions are in equal proportions, pH 7 is neutral. When there are more H + than OH-ions then the water is called “acid”. If OH-ions outnumber the H + ions then the water is called “alkaline”. The pH scale ranges from 0 [...]

Shortly after my diagnosis, I applied for and received scholarship funds to pay for alternative medicine treatments.
