EMOTIONAL DAY

In Glioblastoma Cancer  •  by Amanda Herring, Writer, June 12, 2025  •   Leave a Comment
I’m emotional today. Not quite sure why, except sometimes reality sets in, and it’s difficult to fight it off. I feel a little sad, and I’m so tired. Just had blood work, and now we’re waiting to see the doctor at West Clinic. I rested...

SHOW UP

In Glioblastoma Cancer, Inspiring & Encouraging  •  by Amanda Herring, Writer, June 6, 2025  •   Leave a Comment
Keith says I don’t give myself enough credit. I’m trying. I think about it a lot. I don’t like this new story, and it certainly isn’t the one I thought I’d be a character in, but showing up best I can is what I can...

LITTLE DID SHE KNOW

This picture was taken December 2, 2024, at the Hernando Christmas Parade. It was such a fun night! She didn’t know it at the time, but… In 9 days, she would have a weird, little seizure standing at the sink in her bathroom. In 15...

UNTIL IT’S YOU, YOU HAVE NO IDEA

In Glioblastoma Cancer, Stories & Reflections  •  by Amanda Herring, Writer, May 28, 2025  •   Leave a Comment
Things about a terminal cancer diagnosis you have no idea exist until it’s you… On one hand (the gimpy, shakey hand)… 1) You grieve. A lot. You mourn your old self, especially when you see old pics of your “real life” self. 2) You think...

Update! Mrs. Amanda is out of surgery and doing good according to her surgeon. He is pretty sure that he got all of the tumor. Now we wait, and pray,  as they send the tumor off to pathology to see if it is cancerous or...
