These are some of the blog entries that I’ve written over the years that have to do most specifically with my experience with doctors, my having had Proton Therapy in 2008, hospitals, as well as my upcoming preparation for Walking Miles 4 Brain Matters and being on that walk.

Dreamed of A Walk!
It has been 10 years since I was getting ready to begin my walk from my house on Long Island, New York to Massachusetts General Hospital. I had planned over a year for that walk. I started thinking about it after my family and myself had finally moved to a house we had been waiting […]
To Stay in The Game, You Have To Stay In The Game
This has been quite the year…for us all. There have been so many things we’ve had to deal with in one way or another. There has been Covid19; at first, we were told back in late January that it wasn’t really a big deal, but that didn’t seem true. Then come late February it was […]
Changes! Keep on keepin’ on…
A lot can happen in a year…its been 1 year since our last Brain Matters Fall Fundraiser! It’s hard to believe. In some way it feels like it was just a few months since last year’s fundraiser and in another it definitely feels like it has been a whole year. So much HAS happened this […]
“Never Give Up, For That Is Just The Place And Time That The Tide Will Turn”
There is a season…Turn, Turn, Turn; that Pete Seeger song comes to mind for so many reasons. It comes to mind because it musters the image of Fall and the changing leaves, which brings to mind our Brain Matters Annual Fall Fundraiser. It bubbles to mind all the amazing memories of my having walked among the changing […]
Happy Year!!!
It’s been quite a while since I’ve blogged, but I have been quite busy writing, researching and becoming a certified Life Coach. In just a couple of weeks I will launch Life Coaching Matters, which is about re-empowering those who have survived. That feeling of being filled with power means a great deal to most […]

It’s the day after Brain Matters most recent fundraiser, the day of Cinco de Mayo. Today is my daughter Rachel’s 17th birthday; to those of you who follow my personal Facebook page you may have already seen that posting. She’s driving today, seems like only a few years ago, she was driving a different kind […]
Life and the pursuit of happiness…what I want to do when I grow up
Are you a cancer survivor? If you are, then you’ll get what I mean. Public health experts seem to point out that overall rates of death from cancer haven’t budged, and that some cancers are of course a lot more survivable than others. Granted brain cancer isn’t one of those more survivable kinds of cancers, […]
Goodbye Chloe, you were there in the best of times…and the worst of times, if only our pets could live longer
Miss Chlo, how I will miss you, how we will all miss you. You lived a long life in dog years. This March 25th would have been your 15th birthday. Up until only a few months ago when your walking was off and your eating was off (a definite sign something was wrong), we were […]
That 1st Anniversary Fundraising Thank you, plus video
Oh what a year to fundraise? Every year for brain tumor awareness and the need for more research for the cause is a year to raise funds, but this year besides the other usual necessary needy causes out there in the world, the bar was also raised by the 2012 Election. It’s always fun to […]
