Tough update this time around, but I know a lot of folks have been thinking of us and praying for us, so here it is. Unfortunately, the chemo has not worked to shrink the tumors. And unfortunately, it has done some damage to my heart, although we’re hoping that reverses in the months to follow. […]
UPDATE ONLY (60-second read, I promise!): Refresher … I was scanned at the end of round 2 chemo (end of December) and as you may recall, the tumors had not shrunk. I’m in the middle of my 4th round of chemo now, and I’m back in for scans, etc. this week: Tomorrow: CT/PET scan (to see

Quick Update: Round 4 tomorrow morning. C and I are over in G’Town tonight, since I gotta be at the hospital at 7am. So, “Once more unto the breach dear friends,” or, if you prefer Snoop Dogg over Shakespeare, “Fo shizzle, my nizzle, the more medicated, the more dedicated,” although, I’m pretty sure the medication

FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE, UPDATE FIRST, RANDOM, LONG DIGRESSION TO FOLLOW: I apologize for the radio silence! Truth is, I just haven’t wanted to talk about cancer much lately. I’ve come to realize the best way to fight it, is to try to forget you have it. But an update is in order, so here we

Always a risky move posting in the middle of a chemo session but I know I owe an update … Heart echo was fine – bloodwork was great again – unfortunately, CT scan doesn’t show much change – maybe tiny shrinkage in chest tumors but no real change in lungs – doc said not to

Hello family & friends and Happy (almost) New Year! Big day tomorrow, as I go in for echo to check how my heart’s holding up, and, most importantly, a CT scan to see if the chemo’s working. I’d like to think all is good, as I’ve been feeling well, and working, walking, and even jogging
Just an update: all relatively good here – Covid dustup is behind us – all 4 girls tested negative the end of last week – supposedly Aedan never got it (although we may antibody test him in few weeks to see) – although it was kind of a nightmare for all of us with the

Quick update: C is now 100%, T is close to 100%, M is much better last day or two, as well. C is still in QT with T and M, until they’re all in the clear. A is still fine (maybe retest him or get him antibody test at some point?). B is well past

For those keeping score, Girls 4 – Boys 0. Briton’s had it and is over it. Christie tested positive again. MacKenzie and Tegan both tested positive yesterday. Aedan and I both negative. C is feeling much better. Mackie and Tegan both have minor symptoms. Keep the prayers rolling for Tegan please, as she’s uniquely vulnerable!
Can’t a guy just relax and enjoy his Red Devil in peace? The siege at the Graber compound continues, but we are holding up well. Christie tested positive. Briton’s original test was positive, but she has since tested negative and has no symptoms now – so she had it and is in the clear. The
