On Tuesday June 25th, 2013 I learned that I have Esophageal Cancer. A CT Scan done later that week would show the cancer has also spread to my liver.

Instead of asking, "Why Me?", I found myself asking, "What Now?" And so begins the latest learning experience that God has set before me.

After: A years treatment of a clinical trial immunotherapy drug, MEDI4736 removed the metastatic cancer in my liver effectively taking me from Stage 4 to Stage 1. Surgery (Esophagectomy) which had previously been taken off the table was performed in Oct. 2015, and 2016 was a delightfully cancer free year.

However 2017 finds metastic cancer recurrence this time in one lung and lymph node.

How I'm doing physically and spiritually is what my blog is all about.
