Day 1

Today I was diagnosed with AML Leukemia.


  • On Monday I went to get my eyes checked and get a new glasses.  
  • During the retina exam, my optometrist noticed a Roth Spot so he encouraged me to see my GP  ASAP.
  • My GP doctor did great job and ran many blood tests and ultimately referred me to an Oncologist.
  • I saw the oncologist immediately on Thursday and she admitted me to the hospital in south Austin.  
Those are the facts.  Facts only tell part of a story- I am strong, loved by my family and friends around the world, generally healthy, and most of all - I have a God stronger than Leukemia and in the business of healing.  

Stay with me during these next weeks as I will update everyday on my victory over Leukemia.

Wow! It is amazing what you can get when going for new glasses. You must have been quite shocked, I was. I'm thinking twice about having my eyes tested. Thank God that he is bigger and greater than any problems that may come our way. Please to hear you are recovering now. Wishing you all the best and hope you got your new glasses!
