		<description><![CDATA[My good friend, Johanna Wilson, recently posted a comment to my last blog.  I find it so compelling that I&#8217;ve deleted the comment and reproduced it here in its entirety.  It is honest, humble (perhaps a bit too self-deprecating, though), and I think quite representative of the way people with cancer feel—and a strong denunciation [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today, Greg and I (masked and gloved) went to Walden Pond for a second visit, this time with our dear friends Alison and John.  We hiked the trails for a few hours.  There was life all around us—trees, insects, birds, and mammals were obvious everywhere we walked.  Walking with my loved ones, I thought of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My last post was an honest and authentic expression of my thoughts and feelings about my current state of being.  I wasn&#8217;t hiding anything.  But there is something else going on. This morning I awoke with a runny nose and some congestion.  This could be a minor bacterial infection, which would not likely be a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve received a somewhat strong response to my last post, which is great. Keep the comments and email coming. Regarding that post, many have questioned my final comment about sympathy for my cancer. To be sure, I chose that word to be provocative, but I do have sympathy for all life that is marked for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Neuropathy, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, narcotics, dehydration, extreme fatigue, and crushing sadness—these are the experiences I&#8217;ve been enjoying for the last week. This has been a hard week—the last few days especially so.  With the ongoing C. difficile infection (which is perhaps fully suppressed now . . . maybe), I&#8217;ve been eating nothing but yogurt [...]]]></description>
