Hawaii-Bound!!
After a crazy busy day yesterday which included a call with a dean at USC Keck School of Medicine and Norris Cancer Center, the Director of Development at Fight Colorectal Cancer, the senior counsel in charge of pro bono projects at OMM, acupuncture with Mary Ellen, killer workouts at both Educogym and LAAC, and a bedtime of approximately 3(ish) am, I am on my way to LAX. Next stop: Waikiki Beach.
I need to share a few exciting developments with you before I turn my energy to catching some zzzs on the plane: The WunderGlo Foundation (or something like that), a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting colon cancer research and advocacy, is officially going to be a real thing in a matter of months. My beloved OMM is helping me with the entire application process, which solidifies them as the greatest law firm in the world. I'm going to raise so much money for Dr. Lenz and Fight CRC that it's not even funny. I am 1000% on board to do everything in my power to help cure cancer. I'm sick of it taking so many brilliant people. Starting The WunderGlo Foundation is my way of making sure that cancer's days are numbered.
In addition, planning for my 3-on-3 basketball tournament and silent auction is coming together nicely, with some spiffy promotional literature ready for mass consumption. Do let me know if you'd like me to send you my information. Any donation, big and small, is much appreciated.
Finally, after acupuncture and a serious legs workout (I'm slowly creeping up in weights and now I'm pushing 160 pounds on the leg press without any problem), followed by swimming half a mile at LAAC, I feel incredible. My body is acting as if I've never had a drop of chemo, or a surgery, or a battle with "the cancer." It's pretty incredible. I feel like Superwoman over here. :)
Finally, I bought my first post-op bikini yesterday. Stay tuned for pics of me rocking the belly button-less look on the beaches of Hawaii soon!!
You know your girl won't leave you in the lurch while enjoying paradise - updates will be just as regular as ever. Aloha, dear readers!!
