tenacious

Dear Friends and Family,

In May of this year I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of mucinic carcinoma; three cancerous tumors residing in my lower abdomen and pelvis. After seven difficult rounds of chemotherapy and several ugly complications, I am pleased to let you know that the cancer has been eradicated from two of the largest tumors and reduced by nearly 60% in the third!

Though I have several more months of chemo to go, as well as a likely surgery to remove the tumors, I am more confident than ever that this nasty disease can be defeated and I want you all to know that your support has made my journey bearable.

With sincere thanks,
Terry McGinnis
