I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there...

Today’s PET Scan results… 1. No metabolic finding to suggest progression disease. No hypermetabolic hepatic lesion, pathologic lymph node, convincing peritoneal nodule or distant metastases. 2. Similar to multiple prior PET/CT, the primary proximal...

White blood cell count low, platelets low, etc. Kind of feels like a broken record at this point. Dan’s oncologist is trying to get insurance authorization to add medication that will increase his platelets. Why would the insurance not cover it? Yeah, great...

Maybe “lucky” is not the right term. Determined maybe? Anyway, it fits with the month. Danny is on chemo #78 and still kicking. His PET scan showed great news and just in time as his body needs a break. He’s really hoping to go NED (no evidence of disease). It’s not...
