About
Hello, My name is Dan Carpenter. When I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, I was told I could expect 12-14 months if things went well, and a 10% chance to make it.
The moment I heard my diagnosis, I was completely overwhelmed and absolutely devastated. It felt like I was sucker-punched by the universe. I had been healthy, active, and all of my bloodwork had been coming back fine. I quickly learned that life can be the most fierce opponent you will face. Through this difficult journey, I’ve learned to be enthusiastic for each small victory and grateful for another day to carve my path. Each day is another chance to pick up the pen and write a new page…..Because you are the author of your own life. And every day is your choice to determine how you live.
It’s tough waking up like David and having to face Goliath every single day. There are no referees, and there is no practice. You play your heart out until the whistle blows. Every day is the super bowl.
Through my journey, I have found inspiration, strength, and even inner peace through my struggle. Life became about learning what it is that I was really fighting for. On this site you will find information, resources, successes, memories, and most of all….Hope.
We believe in hope, resilience, and community. We value every story and honor each journey. Our mission is to empower those facing cancer with support, resources, and connection. Together, we can create a safe space where everyone can share, learn, and grow.
Reach out and let’s walk this journey together with hope and support.
