    Note from Elizabeth

    Although I am determinedly declaring that I will not allow being  a cancer patient to define me, I recognize that  in truth,  for the next several months, it will in many ways do just that, This blog, Fighting with the Wind, is where my medical updates, philosophical musings, humorous anecdotes,  heart-warming stories, spiritual contemplations,  angry rantings, and  joyous celebrations can be found.
