My time in N.C. has been a heck of a learning experience. Most of the learning happening outside of the newspaper.
Kathrine McKnight laughs as her caregiver Dianne Maxcy gives her a kiss in McKnight's home in Winston-Salem on July 7, 2009. McKnight has been battling endometrial cancer since 1999. McKnight's cancer is eating away at her spine. Once the cancer eats through her spine, she will become paralyzed. She wears a brace in the hopes that it will save her from being paralyzed once the cancer eats through.
"We're like sisters," says Maxcy. "I even come over on my days off."
Gotta go running.
