Yes, that'd be me, your favorite baldie and professional cancer patient!!
You can now add "writer" to that label. Check me out. Tell everybody. I have my own picture and biography:

Now, I'm a little confused. I'm not clear whether I really get to keep posting or if this is a onetime deal. It's the too-good-to-be-true feeling.
Really, if I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have any, but I'm hoping to add this to my writing repertoire, an adjuvant to Baldie's Blog, where I'll write in a more professional context, adding transparency to healthcare and building a community.
Luckily, I've been taken under the wing of a great editor. Thank you Linda, I never would have gotten anything without her.
And this could start a writing extravaganza: An article featuring ME in The New York Times is slated for print TOMORROW.
I love writing "me" and "New York Times" in the same sentence, even if it is depicting my plight with meeting my 2 million insurance maximum.
As with breaking news there is always a possibility that it will not run tomorrow, but everybody should be on the look out.
With all the excitement, I can hardly contain myself.

Hillary, you are pretty amazing, really, truely a fighter! I am pretty honored to know you, at least a little, from this blog. Congratulations! I am off to find a New York Times!
Hey there, just wanted to say how proud I was to read that you're going to be published, how cool is that!
I'm honored that you are representing the refractory Hodgkins crowd and know you will be great. I hope you start feeling better soon Hillary.
Please take good care,
Your friend Chris
Nice job on the HuffPost piece! Some of us were just talking about the divorce element the other day, I don't think enough people are aware of how many families have to consider that option. Good to see you speaking out about it.
Looking forward to NYT's piece!
