Excellent story Jonathan. I watched you on MSNBC throughout the presidential election cycle and had no idea about your cancer history. I was diagnosed with a rare form of ovarian cancer six years ago and as a journalist, I responded with the same research and analytical approach once I was in remission. Before that, I was too sick to be Lois Lane. Thanks for sharing your journey. By the way, I had the same type of cancer Lance Armstrong had -- choriocarcinoma -- only mine originated from my ovaries, not testicles (of course).

In a taxi en route to lunch on that awful Super Tuesday, I experienced a powerful premonition: I have cancer, it's going to be bad, but I'll live until I'm 90. Probably not, but I turn 50 this year and, full of hope, recall that great line from "The Shawshank Redemption": "You can get busy living, or get busy dying." For me, it's no contest.
