What a change! And a fart at the end.

I was thinking back over the past years since surgery and taking note of the changes I've made. Ok, so I've lost a ton of weight. But there's so much more. That fat guy on the couch was miserable. I had so much inside of me, so much potential, and no desire or energy to do anything about it. I only dwelt in failure. Every diet, exercise regime, and commitment to myself, I broke.

Not so anymore. I'm not a whole new man. I'm the same man, but unleashed! That defeated blob on the couch would never have attempted to do what I'm doing now.

I lost my job last spring, and now stay home with the kids. I say that, because I couldn't seem to find a job. But what a blessing. Now that I've been home, i've had the time to help create Cancer Copay Relief, which I've told y'all about already.

And yesterday I farted just a little. I wrote an article backing the foundation a few weeks ago. I can't believe the response it has gotten! Cancer centers around the country have emailed me with interest in it. And now, it's posted on CNN. I feel stinky as we only understand. Check it out.

Losing a job can be devastating.  It's good to hear you are making positive changes in spite of the setback.

The launch was a total success. The website is beautiful, and finished! I can't believe we actually pulled it off. And, people started donating before noon. I feel so blessed, and lucky to be part of this.

Check it out. www.cancercopayrelief.org
