Clean.

Although the intense abuse from the repetitive rollar coaster of emotions every 60 days has become quite taxing, I'm exceedingly overjoyed to know things are unchanged. I guess change isn't always good.

More to come on the ongoing saga of my hand, but for now I'll leave things simple. My earnest thanks for all the recent encouragement and love. Hopefully this will get easier and we can all put it further and further behind us.

I got this. The rest is still unwritten...

PS Mom had a "good" experience today (as good as being pumped full of chemo can be). After a scary increase in her white blood cell counts last week, she enjoyed new numbers reduced by almost half this week along with a reduction in the number of chemo drugs that had to be administered. A good week for both of us. She's holding in there and showing great strength and character with Big C's standing lovingly by her side. After Mom worked up an appetite in the treatment room for plain noodles, the three of us shared a nice lunch followed by concurrent family accupunture sessions. Ashley even showed up minutes after we left for a last minute Qi tune up before we leave for NY Wednesday morning.

C Qi in the House!
