Ten years. That's how long it's been since my initial diagnosis. Ten years, 2 stem cell transplants, many bouts with pneumonia, flu, even pulmonary embolisms (blood clots) in my lungs, and more rounds of chemotherapy than I can count.

It started when we were planning to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, and had to cancel our planned trip.in order to start treatments. Our actual 30th anniversary was spent at Roswell getting my first chemo infusion. We just completed a trip to celebrate our 40th last week. Must be a sign of progress. Or determination. I promised Stephanie I would fight like hell to celebrate 50 too.

That's where I need your help. I’m asking you to support me in the Ride for Roswell again this year. Let’s keep the team at Roswell working to find treatments (a cure, even?) to make sure I can keep that promise.

Any amount helps. Thank you.
