The Ride of My Life

By: Tug McGraw Foundation (View Profile)

It’s important to have a superior attitude, stay positive, and share your cancer story and journey with others to encourage and inspire them—and then let them do the same for you.

Finally, be persistent: go to the Internet, educate yourself about your tumor and new treatment options, and plan your therapy after studying those Internet articles and talking to different doctors. Never underestimate the power of prayer.

In short, get back in the saddle…and ride on!

So interesting -- I cannot imagine being a neurosurgeon who is diagnosed with a brain tumor! How frightening to know so much about what your medical condition is, and to have treated many patients for the same thing. This story was inspirational - gotta love his zest for life, riding on the motorcycle!
It feels good to write.
