Some Basic Info

I was first diagnosed with malignant brain tumors on 11-20-08 and I finished treatment for those on 4-13-09. I was recently diagnosed with a recurrence on 12-08-09. I set up this blog so people could follow along with my progress and keep up with what is going on in my treatment. I also wanted to put up information from my first go round so people could learn a little bit about what happened to me before.
The blog is set up with the newest posts first. Sometimes I will post stories from my first experience, in which casse it will be slightly out of order, but the titles will let you know. If you want to look at older posts, which may provide a better idea of the whole picture, use the "Blog Archive" tool on the right side of the page to browse them. The titles of the posts should be pretty self-explanatory. If you don't really know that much about me, or what happened, you should check out these two posts first: this one about what's happening now, and this one about my first experience.
Feel free to leave comments, it should be open to everyone now. Thanks for visiting, I hope this little blurb clears up some confusion, and I hope you like the blog.

An Opportunity To Help Out

My aunt Sue has created a website for those who want to help me and my family out. The website is a sign up for people to make us dinner. It is http://www.lotsahelpinghands.com/c/622321/login/ and you have to create an account on the website to be able to sign up.
My grandmother suggested putting a link to it on my blog so more people would know about it, and I thought that was a good idea. Thanks to Sue and thanks to all of you who have/ will sign up!

HI MILES,
YOU ARE MY HERO AND INSPIRATION. I AM A CHEMO PATIENT TOO (FOR INCURABLE OVARIAN CANCER). YOUR BLOG WAS FILLED WITH WORDS OF COURAGE AND WISDOM FAR BEYOND YOUR YEARS. I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE IN THE "HELP OUT" SECTION BUT I LIVE IN MICHIGAN AND I'M A ROTTEN COOK TOO, SO MAYBE YOU'RE LUCKY I CAN'T BRING FOOD. COULD YOU LET ME KNOW YOUR FAVORITE CARRY-OUT PLACE AND WHAT YOU LIKE TO EAT? I WANT TO ORDER SOMETHING AND HAVE IT DELIVERED TO YOUR HOUSE. EBARR374@AOL.COM MEANWHILE, COURAGE! STRENGTH, AND KEEP FIGHTING! LOVE, BETH BARR
