(Not a cancer column.)

Whether or not I'm certain about my attitude toward being a dual cancer threat (non small cell lung and papillary thyroid, cancer), only my subconscious knows for sure.
Opinion: Column: Back to Abnormal
Well, those last two weeks were kind of fun, (comparatively speaking) to the dozen or so previous weeks.
Opinion: Column: Good News Travels Slowly
Sure enough, the email from my oncologist didn't arrive in my inbox before we left for the weekend away on Friday.
