ABOUT MARK
My name is Mark Andrews. I am 35 years old. I have been married to my beautiful wife Jenna since Nov 2000. We had our first baby, Jonathan Patrick Andrews, on Nov, 15 2007. I can't even tell you how great that has been. We live in Stevenson Ranch California.
Jenna and I have a wonderful marriage. We are very open with each other, great communicators and we love each other very much. I can't even imagine what it would be like to go through this without her. We are helping each other keep a positive attitude.

On November 22, 2007 I started to feel ill. At first we thought it might be an ulcer. Soon after I was diagnosed with Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Carcinoma metastasized to the Liver. At this point it has only spread to my liver, but is quite advanced. The doctors have told me I have anywhere from 1 to 4 years to live. I do have a chance of getting rid of the cancer or extending my life expectancy if I can get a liver transplant and surgery on my pancreas.

WHAT IS OUROBOROS?
The Ouroboros is an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon swallowing its own tail and forming a circle. The notion of a serpent or dragon eating its own tail can be traced back to Ancient Egypt, circa 1600 BC. From ancient Egypt it passed to Phoenicia and then to the Greek philosophers, who gave it the name Ouroboros ("tail-devourer"). It has been used to represent many things over the ages, but it most generally symbolizes ideas of cyclicality, unity, or infinity especially in the sense of something constantly re-creating itself, the eternal return, and other things perceived as cycles that begin anew as soon as they end.
