Who Is Maggie?
Maggie is my wonderful wife and my best friend. We’ve been together for nearly 8 years now and married for more than 3. And she was diagnosed with Stage IV colon cancer in January, 2007. She was barely 31 years old.
Prior to all this, everything was going just great. We had the future in our hands. She was at Baylor Law School pursuing her life-long dream of becoming a lawyer and then something odd happened. She developed some weird pains in her chest.
We found out January 5th that we had cancer. Our lives immediately spun up into a whirlwind of medical procedures, hospitals, weird drugs, insurance woes, Final Directives and other things, all of which were very scary and very new to us.
Our friends and family came out in full support when we needed it most, when we could barely stand up or see straight, still half-unconscious from the blow we’d just received. We are so blessed to have such great friends and a supportive family.
Many months have passed and a lot has happened. This blog is a crude attempt at trying to capture what’s going on with us (mostly Maggie) while we carry on with our lives.
