  • Summary

  • This is a mostly upbeat, sometimes downbeat, look at my life with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia a.k.a, CLL. Though CLL could also stand for "Could'a Lived Longer," I believe you can still have a life well-lived despite your CLL. I hope hearing about my journey will encourage you on your walk with leukemia.

    Embracing the changes leukemia brings
    Apr 27 2024

    Like so many things in life, leukemia brings change. When CLL came into my life, I still felt the same physically. But in my head I felt suddenly different. I knew the future was no longer going to go as I'd planned. The question was, and still is, how will I deal with that change? Do I fight it or embrace it? Do I let fear and doubt rule me, or do I push through it -- acknowledge my new life and move forward. Hopefully this podcast will have some answers.

    Don't let CLL stop you
    Dec 4 2023

    Yes, you have leukemia, but if you allow yourself to take your time you can accomplish more than you think. It's okay to take longer to do a project than it did before you had CLL. On today's episode I talk about my adventure tiling our bathroom. It took me three weeks! A job that most would do in a few days. Now, some of that time was spent learning how to do a job I'd never done before. But I also had to work at a slower pace. But I did it. So don't give up on yourself. And don't let Leuk convince you that you can't accomplish things.
