I was diagnosed with cancer in the summer of 1996 and my life, as I had known it, was to be changed forever. 

At that very moment – what do you do?

Just like cancer cells multiplying and subdividing in our bodies, a variety of contradictory feelings surface when you realize that your fate isn’t completely in our own control. It’s like you’re alone in a row boat in the middle of the ocean. All you can see is an endless horizon in every direction. The immensity is overwhelming and the fear crippling. Your only anchor available is the most human of all feelings, an irrational response in the face of uncertainty: Hope. But finding the strength to keep on rowing into the unknown can be as intense as the rowing itself.
