		<description><![CDATA[Some have asked: Why did you put off Sutent for so long? Well, first, because one of the warnings that came with the drug was that it can cause dizziness, which will be made worse if taken with alcohol. And, really, who wants to go on a drug that can’t be taken with alcohol? Second, our oncologist put it: There are only so many tools in the toolbox to fight kidney cancer, and we should try to use them all. It's a question of sequencing.]]></description>

I am sad today, but I’m also hopeful. I’ve sometimes said that living with cancer makes “hope” a lifestyle. It’s how Chris and I have chosen to approach this journey. Sad but hopeful – not a bad way to start a new chapter.]]></description>
