Shaken Way too soon to be pushing up daisies Looking down the barrel of a fate like Swayze's Fears in the night & tears by the gallon Trudging the path of Alex and Alan. So many questions, not one solitary answer When how why with this celebrity cancer. #cancer #CancerAwareness

#Ireland #Dublin #travel @cietours I took literally HUNDREDS of photos during my awesome travels through Ireland - Blarney Castle, The Ring of Kerry, #Galway, #Limerick, Cliffs of Moher - yet somehow this is the one getting all the attention I will not be taking questions

FINALLY! 2 years 4 Surgeries 29 Rounds of Chemo I FINALLY got to see @BillyIdol & @joanjett after missing his concert in 2023 because I was in chemo! Docs gave me 6 months to live back then, but I HAD to survive long enough for this! Thanks Billy & Joan for a truly amazing show!

5 Things NEVER to say to a #Cancer patient: 1) It's "only" [hair, scars, weight, etc.] 2) You'll be fine! 3) I know exactly how you feel because I had [ANY medical issue OTHER than cancer] 4) Let me tell you about someone who died from the same cancer you have 5) You got this!

Bon Jovi did more for Miriam than just provide great music. She shares a valuable life lesson she learned from the band in her story from our book, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Young at Heart. bit.ly/4ccG85e

#Cancer #PancreaticCaner #WritingCommunity #authorlife Well, biopsy just confirmed the Pancreatic cancer has spread to my lungs, even after Whipple surgery to remove the tumor. Going back into chemo in 3 days. Trying really hard to stay positive & not mourn my old life too much

#WritingCommunity Before my cancer diagnosis, I had a project nearly done, only needed a few edits. Mothballed for a year as I went thru chemo & surgery, now I'm wondering if I should polish it up for #pitdark. Guess I'm really worried I don't 'have it' anymore as a writer. Hmm

#cancer #PancreaticCancer #Money My Father-in-law liked to say "If you have problems that can be solved with money, then you don't have problems." I always sort of 'got' that, but it didn't really become clear until my cancer diagnosis Now I see nothing could be more accurate
