About this...

Originally I was playing around with a blog in 2008. It never went anywhere. But the last two months changed all of our lives, and especially mine. For me, cancer was a truly life changing event intensifying every moment of existence,

I was lucky enough to work with HeartMath. emWave and Quick Coherence® gave me the key to physiological/emotional coherence. Throughout the experience, I have been able to transform fear and anxiety into staying focused on moving forward. I have been awake at night due to pain and drugs, but I have not spent a minute afraid of the future. Doc Childre together with all the great researchers at the Institute of HeartMath have created a unique gift to the world, it has made my experience very different from what I would have ever imagined it to be.

I am also grateful to Rusty Hammer and Randy Pausch, who walked a much more difficult path than mine with grace and caring. They are my idols. And I am grateful to my wife Cheryl (my advocate), my family, and all the friends, who have shown interest and care.

When you enter this journey, you will be surprised how many people really care about you. Don’t walk it in silence. Cancer is not shame, it will impact all of us, but together, we can have the strength to transform the experience.

I can truly say, cancer made me live to be more alive than I have ever been!

Note: I started this blog two months after the initial events, so it will take me a bit to catch up with all the experiences and thoughts that have accumulated.
