This blog was started in the Spring of 2007, about 6 months after my mom Suzie was diagnosed with myelofibrosis. Myelofibrosis is a bone marrow disorder that disrupts the body's normal production of blood cells. It is a very rare disease that affects only 2-3 people in every 1 million. During a time of so much grief and uncertainty, my family drew closer around my mom - a very strong, caring, loving and determined woman.
It is now 3 years after her initial diagnosis, and I am so happy to report that my mom continues to hold her own. The majority of the entries in this blog evolve around my mom's diagnosis and treatment and my efforts to do something for the organizations that supported us all when we needed it most.
