Ok guys, seriously…My tumor’s currently growing and is pressing up on my heart and thus reducing blood flow so it’s already under stress.

Biopsy day was this morning, I forgot all the prep readings in my dad’s car yesterday and didn’t read any of it last night (whoops).

Thank you to the outpouring of love, prayers, good vibes, encouraging words, and heartfelt stories today. I honestly wanted to blog what I’m going through to record my own thoughts and experiences for myself, but people have been blowing up my phone and FB. Just in the last 6 hours, I’ve had 546 readers on this blog post. Crazy!

For the past 6-7 weeks I’ve had a cough that wouldn’t go away. I noticed it when I was in SF for a wedding and figured it was the dry air. When I got home, I scheduled a doctor appointment because my lungs were hurting from the non stop coughing.

I can’t help but feel disappointed that I didn’t take anywhere near as many photos on my camera as I usually do. I think it’s a number of factors, of course we were only gone for a short trip but most of the time it was in Taipei, which is a big city like Tokyo, or Bangkok.
