Time, Flying

| No Comments

It has been brought to my attention, recently, that it's probably not the best thing to have a five year gap on a website chronicling my adventures with leukemia. Couple that with the fact that comments have been broken for I-don't-know-how-many-years and it might have appeared that the site was dead and unresponsive because, well, I was, too.

Not at all true. In fact, within the past few months, I've celebrated nineteen years in remission, as well as my fortieth birthday. I am returning my focus and attention here after a very long absence.

Unfortunately, while attempting to clean things up a bit, a few things were inadvertently broken along the way. I apologize for the mess. Should be able to muddle through the updated MT templates over the next couple of weeks and put together a serviceable design.

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.
