Defeating Cancer Day 47
Only one more test before another two-week holding pattern while the results come in. In the meantime, I was given only two orders from the doc: 1. Gain weight. 2. Exercise. So this week I was muscle-sore for the first time in over a year, and it counts as a win.

Defeating Cancer Day 37
Met with the first oncologist yesterday and got an immediate referral to someone with more expertise. Literally no hesitation from the Dr. He had one patient in the last year with my type of cancer. Mind blowing that I’m within such a small population of patients.

Defeating Cancer Day 30
It’s been a month since my diagnosis. I feel like I’m simultaneously a speedy hero running through a slowmotion world, the befuddled near-victim of a bus crash who he just placed on the opposite street corner, and the impotent observer of an impossible circumstance.

Defeating Cancer Day 5:
Well it’s been one helluva week. After Monday’s hard launch with stage 3 small bowel adenocarcinoma, I’ve been learning, processing, reprioritizing, and preparing support systems. #fuckcancer #smallbowel #adenocarcinoma

A book is brand new every time someone reads it for the first time. There's no such thing as coming late to any story.

This next year’s theme is acceptance: I accept the things I can’t change and change the things I can’t accept.

I look forward to weekends not because I’m done with work, but because I get to shift my focus toward work on self-driven projects.
