Overview

God has given me another year to run!  Last year I only was able to run the last half of Chicago since I was in the middle of chemotherapy.  I was honored to jump in and run with my friend Staci and we finished together--she qualified for Boston! 

My ONLY goal for Chicago is to complete the entire race this year.  I celebrated one year of survival on August 15th--I have stage 4 stomach cancer.  Every day God gives me I am grateful for!  I am a living miracle!

Please check out my blog that takes you through my last year's journey with stomach cancer!  www.beccascancer.blogspot.com

Feeling Better!

I woke up with out body aches or a headache!  I'm relieved.  My stomach is still a little queezy, but I can just take metamucil for that.  I will make sure I bring my miniature medicine cabinet with me this afternoon when we head to Chicago. 

Maybe we'll see some familiar faces at the ACS dinner tonight at the Hilton?

Becca, thanks for the lovely note. I'll be thinking about you on Sunday. One journey ends, another keeps moving on.
