I am sure a little of everything, Rich; Pharmaceutical companies, petitioning for clinical trials, raising major funding from large investors, speaking at conventions about breast cancer, working closely with oncologists and medical professionals. I will be doing research and following research as it is released. Working closely with Medicare/Medicaid, the Tommorow Fund, other cancer organizations, etc. Mostly left to the freedom of just complimenting the foundation the way I do now in life. I will be a smorgasbord of experience and talent that is perfect just the way I am. It is this journey and what Ed and I have been through that is of value to Rose and she needs me to compliment all of her plights by continuing to be me. Well, atleast I know I got that one down (lol)!
This will be life just like we live now but it will give me a 'bite' to help even more to advocate for breast cancer, male and female. I plan on doing some damage, saving lifes and getting the resources to the cancer patient directly. I will help in a more personal way. I am eventually going to Washington but it is a 'my baby' project. I also have many commitments that are of my own doing. The balance will come easy since I am on little time restrictions.
I will be working at a cancer foundation but breast cancer is where I can help best. I will also be working patient by patient advocacy and providing resources and such. Bittersweet huh???>>Believe51
PS: I honestly did not think I was going to ramble that bad. Aren't you glad you asked??? Hahahaha!!
