Memoir of a Hollow Man |
My name is Dave Cashen and I am a hollow man. On May 30, 2011 my life changed forever due to cancer...and this is my story. My most recent happenings appear at the top, but for my journey to read in it's entirety, it is best to begin with my first posting. To find it, scroll down the page, then click the arrow at the bottom to 'page back' until you can't go any further and you see my first post "How I Got Here".

1st new setup in over 6 years…words can’t express how much I’ve been anticipating my return on a skateboard. @blindskate @tensortrucks @darkstarskate @clicheskate #seansheffey #damnitfeelsgoodtobeaskater #skateordie #skateboarding #kootneyskillit #thisisliving #hollowman
Just got this bad boy in the mail…24g of slow & fast releasing proteins to help me get through the day. Hoping it will make a positive impact on my energy level & recovery speed…been struggling a lil lately. #musclepharm #kootneyskillit #itson #hollowman
Might have slightly over did it yesterday…after my big hike/bike mission I decided to play some mellow soccer. Needless to say, my body is super exhausted & knees a lil sore… Nothing ice, beer & a Whitecaps match can’t fix. #kootneyskillit #livinglife #goodsore #gocapsgo #hollowman
Solo mission today to the top of the old Blewett Ski Hill…long walk up, but well worth it. Got a lil sketchy coming down & took my 1st bail of the season…fun times! #kootneyskillit #thisisliving #hollowman
An amazing homemade dinner after an amazing day! #sashimigradesalmon #bbq #veggies #coldbeer #kootenayskillit #thisisliving #hollowman
…what a morning…incredible to say the least! This ride is literally out my front door… @mcshredalot #flower #boda #kootenayskillit #mountainlife #thisisliving #rodeupamountain #chargeddownamountain #hollowman
1st mountain bike mission was a success…3 miles uphill, some of which was fairly rocky & technical. Challenging to say the least for a first ride in a while, and exhausting. 25min up - 5min down…so fun! #newchapter #kootenayskillit #feelinggood #getoutandplay #hollowman
2nd half of my amazing day…beach & a healthy dinner. Thinking a movie & some wine to finish it off sounds just about right. #newchapter #kootenayskillit #feelinggood #lifesgood #greencoconutcurrywithscallops #hollowman
Gym, physio, beach, a quick Pulpit hike and beach again…feels amazing beig able to enjoy all life offers once again. I think life’s gonna be good here… #newchapter #kootenayskillit #feelinggood #hollowman
Loving today… Good workout at the gym with @evamayrhofer …then first hike up Pulpit with @mcshredalot … #whitecapsfc match at 530pm followed by a house warmer. #newchapter #kootenayskillit #feelinggood #gocapsgo #hollowman
