The Accidental Tourist

http://kristyraerichardson.blogspot.com

This cancer blog is the living journal of a 37 year old NE Ohio woman diagnosed with metastatic kidney cancer in late 2007. Kristy is not a good surgical candidate, has no insurance for surgery or treatment, a prognosis of a year (perhaps two if we are quite lucky) - so the focus is now on quality of life. Come join Kristy as she faces down one of our worst fears - dying from cancer.
