At the school board meeting last Monday, I met a reporter who was doing a story about Michael and me becoming the National Merit Scholarship finalists. That meeting led another reporter to call me to schedule an interview for a story about me and specifically my experiences with cancer. I met her after school today, and we had a surprisingly enjoyable talk about everything I went through and everything I did during my two cancer diagnoses. Her story should be in the paper on Monday. I'm looking forward to seeing what she writes about me. As an interesting side note, she knew Jeremy, the rest of Big Sur, and Charlie's band Iris from what I assume was a story she wrote about high school bands. I'll have to ask Jeremy about it next time I see him.
