Posted by Tony Ulrich on Thursday, April 29, 2010, In : Udpates 

Hi everybody:

I hope everybody has been doing fine. I completely forgot about my cancer. Well, not really.

About Me


Tony Ulrich In March of 2009, my wife Ann got diagnosed with breast-cancer. I dedicated a website and blog to our breast-cancer journey - in case you're interested: www.ourbreastcancer.net. After three surgeries, countless hospital visits and consultations with health care professionals and an empty wallet thereafter, we finally thought that things were about to get better. But another surprise was waiting for us - after I encountered blood in my urine I was sent for a CAT Scan that revealed a 6.2 cm tumor in my left kidney. On October 1 of 2009, I was officially diagnosed with kidney cancer. This website and blog will keep track of my attempt battling the disease. In case you have questions or comments, please email me at: planetcaravan@gmx.com
