@USASteeplechase It’s because every adult in a 5mile radius knew your parents and grandparents and will take you straight home if you did something bad.

It’s officially time to start planning my book tour… words I never in a million years thought I’d say but here we are!

I’m aiming for my tour to include visiting/speaking at different hospitals or labs. If your institution may be interested in hosting a talk or panel, please reach out!

Bonus points for any GU or pathology departments (thorough comments in my path report were key in my case), labs studying kidney cancer (or rare cancers), and medical schools (love speaking w/med students).

Reposts welcomed.

A couple years ago, the fact that I was shifting industries and my career after a stage IV cancer diagnosis caused quite the controversy. Many people were quite opinionated over the fact I was spending my time working.

Since then, I have started a non-profit, funded a grant, written a memoir, signed a book deal, donated the proceeds from said book deal, built several websites/web apps, started a podcast, joined the Rare Cancer Research Foundation, given talks and presentations, and advocated nationally for other patients. I’ve also never felt more fulfilled.

I had a potential prognosis shift about 6 months into my diagnosis. No one really knew for sure, but we were hopeful.

Navigating life at 30 years old, when you can’t make any long-term plans, is near impossible. But I was off treatment, recognized how fortunate I was and wasn’t about to waste that time. So, I focused all my attention on using the time I had to make the biggest impact I could for others, 3 months at a time. After a few years, those efforts add up.

Occasionally these days, I find myself humbled by where life has taken me, by the fact I’m not only still here but that I wake up every single day and get to follow my passion. And I often find myself reflecting on how different life might have been if I’d let how others thought I should be living my life dictate my path. Today was one of those days.

While I don’t wish cancer on anyone, I do wish everyone could experience the joy that comes from finding purpose and following your passion, a focus my diagnosis gave me.

Don’t let it take a life threatening illness to find yours. Life is short- make every moment count.

Don’t Fast fwd… oh boy that escalated quickly

[Live Storm Chasers @LiveStormChaser]

A must watch from start to finish with a calm sound of rain to tornado sirens being activated to a tornado moving through the area!

Things escalated quickly and serves as a reminder why to always take shelter during bad weather and especially when warnings are issued!

The individual who filmed, we were told by her daughter; "She ended up with a sprained ankle from the wall falling on her but was ok and blessed to be alive"!

She furthered said; "Mississippi weather is always bad so people in my town of Morton could not imagine a tornado coming through. There has not been one in that town in over 100 years or more. Also, the tornado was not supposed to be in that area. It was predicted to go in another direction. So if you do have bad weather please take cover!"

When your phone/weather radio or TV tells you about a warning issued for your area, please listen and take shelter!

It covers an entire city block & opens just in time for the Ryder Cup.

Pretty sweet.
