It is certainly not been my choice. The problem was that on October 2 I had a very <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ackc.org\/blog\/injury-interrupts-kidney-cancer-treatments\/\" target=\"_blank\">severe accident on my bicycle<\/a> while training for the second annual ride to raise money for the Cecile and Ken Youner fund for Cancer research. I basically got caught in some debris went head over the bicycle and hit headfirst into the ground. This caused an intense contusion to my cervical spinal cord and thus I have been out of commission until this very time.<\/p>\n<p>I now will try to return to some of my work to help all of those with kidney cancer out there. If at the same time I can help those with disabilities understand that they can do work even with this those disabilities I will even be happier. Thus I hope this isn&#8217;t to be only the first of my blogs.<\/p>\n<p>I have had to stop my treatment for kidney cancer because of my severe injury. This of course is a great disappointment to me. But I am doing my best to continue to fight on and do what I can with the time I have left to help those like me in the kidney cancer community and now in the New World of disability.<\/p>\n<p>I hope I can continue working on the <a href=\"http:\/\/listserv.acor.org\/SCRIPTS\/WA-ACOR.EXE?A0=KIDNEY-ONC\" target=\"_blank\">Association of Cancer Online Resources <\/a>(ACOR) list and help those patients as well, and continue to answer questions about kidney cancer. I will continue in the fight and I look forward to communicating further with all of my great friends out there in the world fighting kidney cancer.<\/p>\n<p>Respectfully<\/p>\n<p>Ken Youner<\/p>\n<p>(This article is crossposted on <a title=\"Dr Ken's Battle with Kidney Cancer\" href=\"http:\/\/drkenbattleskidneycancer.com\/2010\/12\/12\/12-12-10-ken-youner\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dr. Ken Battles Kidney Cancer<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p><input id=\"gwProxy\" type=\"hidden\" \/> <input id=\"jsProxy\" onclick=\"jsCall();\" type=\"hidden\" \/><\/p>\n<p><input id=\"gwProxy\" type=\"hidden\" \/><input id=\"jsProxy\" onclick=\"jsCall();\" type=\"hidden\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I now will try to return to some of my work to help all of those with kidney cancer out there.
