My name is Mark. This is my website. That might sound selfish, but I believe I am entitled to be selfish. Brain Cancer is killing me. I have 12 to 18 months to live. I want to share my thoughts, feelings, fears and anger with you. Maybe it will be enlightening and inspiring to you. I will attempt to daily up-date my struggle, sharing the bad days and the good. If you join me on my journey, perhaps I will feel less alone and afraid as the cancer destroys more and more of me every day.
Mark's Bucket List
Mark wanted to meet Jimmy Buffet, return to Hawaii one last time and see his father once more. While these didn't happen for him, he still had hopes and dreams . . .I do. Do you?

It was good to see you and Rebecca tonight, Mark. I wish you could have enjoyed the wonderful dinner as much as I did. When you're able to eat a bit better we'll have to do it again, but on the grill next time.
My name up there links to a friend's photo of what we couldn't see during the rainstorm today.
I can see you as well understand the hard parts of life. I thought I would fill you in a little bit on the back drop of my surgery but couldn't find just a message to you place. I have pulmonary hypertension (a rare lung disease) they have no idea how I got it.and I will never put this in my blog because I refuse to dwell on this but I am on the verge of congestive heart failure and is the reason I must have this surgery. I love your blog and I think people like you MUST blog and document your story for people who are ready to give up! I am soooo proud of you for staring this in the face. Don't go down looking :) I have thought about this many many times and if I had one year left. I would tell the people I love I love every single day and spend every moment I could with the younger ones!!! Good luck I will continue to read your blog as well!!
