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

First of all … HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO TEGAN!!!!! She turned 12 yesterday! So yeah, that would mean 12 years ago today, she was chilling under the blue lights of her NICU bed, while the docs were telling us she was born without a bile duct, etc. etc., and throwing around phrases like “incompatible with life.” I
