At Home

separated at birth?

At the old house in Renton, on or around my 21st birthday. Ian and I had been friends since I don't know, fourth, fifth, sixth grade, and it was a fortunate twist of fate (luck? chance? a plan between ian's parents and mine that nobody ever told me about?) that he was in town the day Mom and Paul were throwing a party for me.

I weigh 145 pounds. I've been out of the hospital for a week. It feels f***ing great to be out, even though it's hard work walking up and down the stairs, and I still get tired very easily.

A Few Notes

rkb in 1990
2010 marks my twentieth year in remission from AML. To celebrate, I will be training for and running two marathons with Team in Training: Twin Cities on October 3rd, and Dublin, Ireland on October 25th.

I'd originally started using this site to tell my story -- roughly eight months of treatment in 1990, as well as the impact leukemia had on me in the years that followed. Much of that story is still available through the "Table of Contents" below (or through the site archives).

But now I will also be writing about my training and fundraising goals, progress, as well as other thoughts, feelings, and experiences along the way for this milestone anniversary.
