Thursday, June 29
Today has been a fine day! Nausea and fatigue is down, short but satisfactory work-out, perfect summer weather, few obligations and the prospect of departing Eugene in the morning for our 2017 family reunion commencing Saturday in Whistler, BC. Additionally, I was almost successful in completely taking the day off from dealing with ‘cancer stuff’. What more can I say?
We continue to be in the midst of researching experimental clinical trails, hoping to come up with something with a reasonable chance of success by mid July. As we do so, we are painfully reminded at every turn that my disease is extremely tenacious, aggressive and serious.
We try to stay strong as we: Prepare for the worst, yet hope for the best!
Is that kale in Laurie’s arms? Since I have shared many breakfasts with you and Laurie in the past 16 months, I have begun to love having Kale with my egg in the morning. I just don’t have the bumper crop you all have.
Enjoy Whistler and the family. Still with you stride for stride.
Hugs and have a wonderful trip.
Hope you are having a great time Mike and Laurie! We’re thinking of you guys and sending loads of positive mental tweets.
