Here’s the latest update on my cancer journey: I am getting radiation for the next couple of weeks and then hopefully I can kind of return to a normal life. It’s fitting that I am dealing with breast cancer during October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness month. I have met so many women who have survived breast cancer and that sure gives me hope for a full recovery and cure. Thanks again for all the encouragement and special prayers.

That’s all the news from the Edge of Wright.
