About

Welcome to Living Well with Cancer, a blog for those with serious illnesses and their families. I write this blog as a very fortunate survivor of pancreatic cancer. I was diagnosed in January 2015, had Whipple surgery in February 2015, and am among the few people who developed pancreatic cancer who has lived and thrived for as long as I have.

This blog is intended to inspire hope and show the value of a positive attitude. Happiness is a choice. And may we all live as long as we can as well as we can.

I have authored a book: Surviving Cancer and Embracing Life: My Personal Journey. It is available as a Kindle E-book for $0.99 (https://amzn.to/2MNCWSA) and a paperback for $4.29 with free Prime shipping (https://amzn.to/2ltGTje). It is also available FREE at this blog as a PDF file. Click the “Book” page at the top of the blog to download the file.

This book is dedicated to:

My wife Linda for your phenomenal – and enduring – support and love. You will always be the LOML (love of my life) and best friend.
My daughters Jennifer and Stacey and my sons-in-law Phil and Adam for always being there for me.
My medical teams and other health care (body and soul) professionals, who helped save my life and who always showed caring and compassion to me – and still do.
My friends, who provided me with so much kindness and comfort. And a special shout out to my friends also dealing with cancer; you really inspire me.
All cancer victims – and others suffering with major illnesses — and their families as you go through your own personal journeys. I wish the best for you. You hold a special place in my heart.
