THROWBACK THURSDAY video of my check-up with my Oncologist, Dr. Levin, in 2010.
Man, these videos bring me back to the feelings and emotions of being in the the thick of it.

This is a message to anyone who has been dismissed: Don't let them tell you you're 'too young.' If your body is sending you signals you can't explain, push for answers. Your life depends on it.

So grateful to celebrate my Momma's 81st yesterday...with my sister and niece!
I am blessed to be able to call this woman my Mom!

Taking a moment to practice the pause...then ask creator, God, what ever you call your higher power (praying) how to navigate the situation. This where I am at...and I have so much more peace in my life.
Do you practice the pause?
#pray #pause #life #peace #God

To say that I am a MIRACLE is not a small statement for me. It took me several years to recognize it. I am grateful my pancreas continues to function in whatever capacity it does.
I am just grateful to be ALIVE and well.

What an AMAZING adventure and day of making a difference at a Co-Design with Eli Lilly. I was able to catch up with family too! I've met some incredible humans on my travels. I am grateful.
I love getting away, but for now..I'm heading home... to Maine

Caught a beautiful sunset last night!

My Mom and I took a little adventure to one of my favorite places... The @donutgrove in Orono, Maine.
They make the best donuts and are made with love and you can taste it in every bite!
Definitely a must-visit place!

The longer I live the more convinced I become that life is 10 percent what happens to us and 90 percent how we respond to it.

There’s a book coming — not just a story, but a guide.
For anyone who hears the words “You have cancer” and feels lost.
It’s about what to do next.
What to ask.
What helps.
What gets you through.

Stay tuned. 💜

It's the simple things that we should be grateful for.
Every day I thank God I get to have another day. I never take that for granted. #cancerfighter #pancreaticcancer #stage4 #surthriver #survivor #17yearsandcounting #miracle

Waiting for bloodwork and then off to my CT scan and Mammogram #pancreaticcancer #stage4 #Surthriver #survivor #checkup #cityofhope #17yearsandcounting
