Traveling ‘old school’ today! We just boarded the Greyhound Bus (rebranded as Peter Pan) en route to visit Jeff, Christine and Jenna. Alas – Julia, who we will surely miss, but, nonetheless, we are psyched to the max!
We continue to delight in every aspect of this wonderful family visit! The time together, the conversations, the connections and the hiking just get better and better! We feel so fortunate to have all these marvelous, compassionate, giving people as integral parts of our lives. It’s been just plain FABULOUS!

No new news on the medical front. We continue to trust our OHSU team and hope that this joyful time with family is our best medicine. Upon our return to Oregon on 10/26 we’ll get a new PSA data point and be ready to start a new more aggressive treatment! In the meantime, La Bella Vita!
Mike and Laurie,
I continue to marval at your tight and broad reaching connections with all your family and friends.
Maybe it was the ‘Perter Pan Bus’, but now I can’t help seeing you both as Tinkerbells, (of course, you Mike, are the studly one), (no costume required) spreading the joy, love, optimism and realness you abound with wherever you both light down.
Recharge your wings with all that retuning energy you get from those who love you.
Love you both,
Nancy
Dear Mike and Laurie, We have been faithfully following your blog. We are so happy you are having such a great reunion with your family and old friends. What a wonderful nostalgic time to recapture the memories of your youth. We have also been following your health news—no words–only love. Norene and Lloyd
So glad to be included on your journey and recent trip este! I love your energy and Laurie’s (of course) and yours together. Keeping it positive and positively real, I say. It is infectious. We will have to do those Nissan/Ford Transit van convert and convoy around the west. And of course the island ride (Corsica?) to which you will (of course) be invited. Much love!
