Published on February 2, 2013 by in Cancer, Personal Journey

For some of us, we may be more knowledgeable about certain health conditions as compared to others simply because of our own learned education, our own physical experience, or by the experience of a loved one.

Published on March 5, 2012 by in Personal Journey

We all have our very own health journey that is thrust upon us whether we like it or not.  The difference between each individual is how we choose to participate in the journey.  Do we choose to ignore signs and symptoms of disease?  Do we choose to let fear paralyze us into inaction?  Do we
