Krissy Dietrich Gallagher’s blog about life, luck, love, parenting, writing, and, of course, cancer. May 11, 2015 in Austin's cancer. It all started on a swelteringly hot Monday in July. Almost eight years ago. Our boys were 3 1/2 and ten months old. We lived in a different house. We were different people. Because it changed everything. No, that doesn’t come close to describing what it did to our lives. Waylaid. Ambushed. Flipped over, thrown around, and knocked senseless. At the same time. But what he d...

Krissy Dietrich Gallagher’s blog about life, luck, love, parenting, writing, and, of course, cancer. Here are some of the interesting cancer sites that I use, either to do research or raise money or find inspiration. University Hospitals of Cleveland. This is the hospital where Austin has received all of his treatment, which happens to be located a mere mile-and-a-half from our house. When he’s in-patient, he stays at Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital. St Baldrick’s Foundation. Before . . . My broth...

Novel Writing: Choosing a Method that Works Best for You by Margo L. Dill
http://www.wow-womenonwriting.com/31-FE1-NovelWritingMethod.html
By Margo L. Dill. The very word, outlining, causes some writers to break out in hives. Others can’t live without their outlines, and they refer to them every time they work on their novels. Outlining a novel may not look the same for every writer, and very few use what we all learned in high school with Roman numerals, capital letters, numbers, and lowercase letters. Lynn Viehl, who has written 42 novels in 5 genres under different pseudonyms, writes about outlining novels on her blog,. Chapter summaries...

Recommended wine for today’s entry: At first I was going to recommend a Chianti to go with the yummy baked ziti that I’m actually going to cook tonight … but it is soooooo hot that I decided to look for a refreshing white instead.

A humorous look at the little things in life. The easiest way to achieve one’s goals is to amend them regularly. July 11, 2011. 8212; ashleyolsonrosen @ 11:53 am. Recommended wine for today’s entry: Much to my surprise, I found that not only do 7-11 stores sell wine (in areas where wine sales are not still limited to liquor stores, like Kentucky) but they actually sell cheap, decent wine! Today, though, I would like to speak about goals and the way they change over time. Some buffoon puts an ice-cold keg...

Krissy Dietrich Gallagher’s blog about life, luck, love, parenting, writing, and, of course, cancer. June 18, 2015 in Education. Switching gears entirely, as I am wont to do, I’m excited to tell you all about a project I’m working on with the teachers at Fairfax. I’m not just sharing this because I find it interesting (and hope you do too), but because I’m hoping for active engagement from people both near and far. Ideas, thoughts, questions, suggestions? I’d love to hear from you! September 11, 2007.

How it all began | The Luckiest
https://krissygallagher.wordpress.com/2015/07/30/how-it-all-began
Krissy Dietrich Gallagher’s blog about life, luck, love, parenting, writing, and, of course, cancer. How it all began. July 30, 2015 in Austin's cancer. How on earth did we end up here? That’s what was running through my subconscious as I attempted to fall asleep in a hospital room on Monday, July 30, 2007, with Austin in a crib beside me. How did this happen? An excerpt from that, you know, “book” of mine. I was still calm but not as calm as I’d been two minutes before. Proof that I was indeed not worri...
