LAST SHORT UPDATE

Jun 072008

I’ve decided to eliminate my short update column. I not sure anyone even knows they’re here, and besides, I seem to have lost interest in doing them.

Instead, I have decided to resurrect My [mostly] Daily Journal blog, where I will post things about whatever, or I don’t think appropriate to this blog.

If you’re interested there is a link to My Daily Journal above, or you can just click here

A little about me

Hi, my name is Marc [that's my wife Edie beside me], and I have Mantle Cell Lymphoma, a typically aggressive form of lymphoma, except it so seems in my case.

I was diagnosed over 10 years ago, and have managed to survive since then without treatment, by following a few simple rules. Eat a [mostly] well balanced diet, exercise (cycling, at least up until recently), abstaining from taking supplements or any medications, drinking 5 to 6 cups of [Japanese] green tea a day, and most importantly [lots of good wine], flossing and brushing my teeth twice a day, everyday.

I started this blog mainly to chronicle my life, putting down in writing what goes through the mind of a cancer survivor (although I have been seen straying into unrelated areas on occasion), and along the way help educate others about lymphomas and other blood cancers, and filter out some of the hype and misinformation so often associated with the internet, which unfortunately there is plenty.
