Hi!
My name is Lee and I am a registered nurse from Ohio, originally from Michigan.I started doing trivia quizzes right after finishing over a year's worth of chemotherapy for cancer on the recommendation of my chemo nurses and doctors. They suggested puzzles to try to regain some of the memory loss that occurs with cancer treatment. So far it is helping. I am also a trivia addict. But most imortant, after surviving cancer (so far, fingers crossed) there is so much I want to learn, about everything! I won't be well enough to travel for another 6 months to a year but I feel like I am travelling by reading all the great posts on these boards, from such interesting places. Happy to be here!

Welcome to the forums Lee. You have obviously had a hard road to travel and if we can make your recovery swifter we will certainly try.

Thank you everyone for the welcome and good wishes for my health. I so enjoy reading posts. I used to manage a 10 bed coronary intensive care unit so I am used to keeping very busy and engaged. Laughing with some of the posts really brightens my day! Thanks again. I hope someday to pop in one of your doors (except Gatsby's LOL-we're probably neighbors!
