August 2016, I was diagnosed with breast cancer stage 2. I decided to take the cures and spent 6 months with chemo therapy. The therapy was grueling, I am still very sick from the side effects of the chemo. Every day is a struggle and the cancer wellness center does everything possible with an attempt to make me stronger. Cancer has defined my goal of riding around the world. Unfortunately, medical bills while fighting this horrible disease has dipped into my world tour budget. I even lost my job as a teacher, but my heart is still with my students. Please read my journal post http://www.missrider.com/journal/my-cancer.html to gain an understanding of what has occurred this past year.
