As such, I didn’t go into this movie with very high expectations. In fact, I had pretty low expectations of this movie. What this movie provided felt like a bigger budget version of the...
My reflections on chemo and being nearly a year cancer free
I’ve had a few people ask me how I made it through the days I was on chemo, and what I did so that I didn’t go insane when I was in that chemo chair all day. I was very lucky that the nurses I got at the Markey Cancer were some of the best, and that they never forgot about their patients. It’s been almost a year since I sat down in any the chemo chairs at Markey. Every time I walked into Markey, whenever one of the chemo nurses who...

Samsung 4K/3D 55 inch
Product: Samsung 4K/3D 55 inch Type of product: Television Our rating: 10/10 What I think about it: I have owned this TV for about 2 years. I bought this TV in 2017 and have enjoyed it ever since. It pairs nicely with my Xbox one S for gaming in HDR, which was one of the reasons I purchased this TV. However, because I wanted to have a 3D TV as well as a 4K TV, it took me a few months to do the research and find the perfect TV for my...
