With the taxes paid and 2011 officially behind us (in a fiscal sense) I was happy to make a donation to the Lymphoma and Leukemia Society and Hockey Fights Cancer from the proceeds of sales of “The Year My Dad Went Bald.” They are great organizations and we are proud to be in partnership with them. I also want to thank everyone whose support made the book a success beyond my wildest dreams. I have met so many great people who are doing so much to fight cancer and look forward to another great year.

Turn Your Head and Cough
I went for my annual checkup with my general physician today and it was the non-event that I expected it to be. Besides some persistent nasal congestion, I have had very little to complain about health-wise recently. The check-ups have been reduced to a series of rote exercises; take a deep breath, turn your head […]

Sharing my Story
It’s been another hectic summer; so hectic I have been lax in blogging about the book. From book signings, to participating at summer camp for kids whose parents are fighting cancer, raising awareness and sharing my story has kept the The Year My Dad Went Bald team busy. But I am not complaining, the publishing […]
