Well This Sucks...
One Day Life is Great...and then everything changed... You have Stage 4 Colon Cancer. Huh?!
​
I am still processing this life changing news that I received on Aug 18th, but I have been jumping in fully to find the best plan of attack that gives me the best chances.
In less than a month, I'm in an aggressive fight for my life. At 46. And that is just still mind-blowing to me.
​​
The ONLY silver lining in this nightmare, has been the humbling and overwhelming love I have received from hundreds of people from my entire life. And the support and prayers, are just filling my cup back up each day. So I cannot thank you all enough. And please keep them coming!
So many of you have asked how you can help. So my Best friend Jill has graciously set up a Sign Up Genius for food and help as well as an Amazon Wish List for some of the things I planned to buy to prepare for Chemo.
​
If you would like to help in any way, the links are below, and I cannot thank you enough.

Many have asked, How can I help?
Yard Work
(Sod would be nice)
Paint the house,
renovations, put in a pool,
small stuff...
Make Organic, plant based, Healthy Meals when I'm too tired from chemo
Donate towards my expensive organic grocery list, acupuncture, and all the other expenses coming my way...
Walks with me when I need motivation to get off the couch. Or walk Zoe when I'm too tired
Send something from my Amazon Wish List of Chemo/Cancer
Swag (aka shit I need)
Meet Teri
She's Fun...
Likes Wine...
Will miss wine...
Now she's going to be boring.
But Alive...
So there's that...
But when chemo is over...

I started a daily walk back in July 2020 after being in lockdown for a few months in Covid and going through some personal stuff and it changed my life.
​
After several months of a daily walk, I lost close to 10lbs, was thinner than I had been in a decade, my energy was through the roof, my stress was reduced, my anxiety gone, and my diet improved because I craved healthier foods!
​
On Nov 29, 2020, I decided I would commit to my 5 mile walk every single day without missing a day. So from that day on, I have not missed a day. That's over 4.5 years!!
​
Until now...

New Goal.
