Cancer is an equal opportunity disease. I have survived three different episodes
over the past fourteen years. Strike 1 (1995): One of my radiation oncologists gave
me a 50 percent chance of surviving tongue cancer three years disease free. Strike 2
(1997): Neck cancer restarted my recovery clock. Strike 3 (2008): Diagnosed with
prostate cancer.
Fortunately, Life Constricted isn't a baseball metaphor. It's a commentary on a
lifelong swimmer and chronicles my family's struggle with cancer after my dentist
detected an abnormality during a routine visit. I owe him and my personal physician
my life. They're the core of my medical dream team.
We were forced to retreat from our hurried professional path, typical of twoincome
families in the Bay Area. We rearranged our priorities and lived life
constricted to pursue its greatest opportunity-love that thrived on hugs, quality
time, and laughter.
Celebrate our reversal of misfortune. Read Life Constricted. |
