A New Journey with Lisa & Chip

This is Lisa and this place is a way for me to chart my ‘new’ journey.

Recently I have been diagnosed with breast cancer (stage 1) and my ‘new’ journey begins.  Of all the journeys I would have rather taken this year, this one was not on my list; however, I know it will prove to be the most significant and miraculous one this year for sure!

Rather than make a ton of phone calls or send dozens of emails, this is how I’ve chosen to keep y’all updated.  I am open to phone calls, emails, texts, and actual get-together’s for those who want to communicate with me that way too.

This is all very new to me and I’m finding my way as I go.  This is all new to each of you too, and I will work on being sensitive to you as well, as you process this information and wonder – like I am – what to say.  Just be honest.  I’ll let you know if you’ve strayed too far, or gotten too close, or rubbed me the wrong way.

To all my family and friends, we are all walking this journey together.  I hope I do not offend anyone with my ramblings, thoughts, questions, and statements.  That is not my intent.  What I do know is that I’ve had a rush of new thoughts in the last couple weeks and this is where I’m going to leave them.  I hope you get something valuable out of it, somehow, somewhere in all of this.
