🦓 Day 18, Cushing’s Awareness Challenge 2021
After I was finished with the Cushing’s long diagnostic process, surgery and several post-op visits to NIH, I was asked to give the scripture reading at my church.

🦓 Day 15, Cushing’s Awareness Challenge 2021
Today’s Cushing’s Awareness Challenge post is about kidney cancer (renal cell carcinoma). You might wonder how in the world this is related to Cushing’s. I think it is, either directly or indirectly.
