I have been running since 2002, and I enjoy everything about it. In 2003 I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a blood cancer with no cure. Doctors soon discovered that the myeloma was attacking my bones, but we are attacking it back, successfully so far. Running (now walking) is a part of that, as well as a celebration of life. My sweetheart of 59 years and my daughter often walk with me. Live one day at a time and make it a masterpiece!
I'm running on behalf of Patients Rising through the E-Race Cancer campaign, while I pursue my goal of completing 100 marathons since my myeloma diagnosis. See these E-Race Cancer links:
