Welcome to my journey with Neurofibromatosis type 2, known as NF2, a genetic mutation which causes numerous tumors to grow within my brain and spine. Since 2004, I have undergone radiosurgery and 3 brain surgeries for 7 brain tumors. Life with NF2 is definitely a test of faith and a challenge to keep positive. Join me on my harrowing adventure to keep active and live life to the fullest!

Year - sign for thursday 12-30-10
A little overdue with the sign of the day
I spontaneously went into the mountains with a cancer survivor friend to try cross country skiing. It proved rather enlightening for me after 14 years since last and after losing all my balance to brain tumors. That will have to be another post.
Here is the sign for "year": http://www.signingsavvy.com/sign/YEAR/732/1

The photos included are some of the highlights of 2010 for us.
photo 1 - Harley and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary. The photo of us was taken at the roof top of an exclusive club at Ceasar's Palace in vegas where the Gold's Gymj convention members were invited to a private party.
photo 2 - pictured with the other Gold's Gym international finalists for most inspirational member of 2010, Jennifer Heideman from Ontario Canada on the left (also a competition body builder) and on the right Danielle Camp from Grand Junction Colorado
photo 3 - Harley and I fulfill a 10 year dream of hiking on Kilimanjaro in Africa together to bring awareness attention to NF2 (and bonus we had a movie made of it to be submitted to the Sundance Film Festival! Who knew that either of us would be involved with something like that when we were born??????)
