Meeting with the surgeon next week to discuss strategy on reversing ALF - Oncologist wants to wait at least two weeks so it is looking like the first week of April ( I cannot wait,.................) - have lots of testing to do in the meantime to get my baseline moving forward and confirm south of ALF (i.e. the surgery site, colon, large intestine) which has been dormant since August 19, 2011 is hooked up properly and ready to start working.
Other news fit to print -
Amy returned from a week in Hong Kong with two ear infections, strep throat and bronchitis - not a great housemate for Chemo Chris - she has been relegated back to the basement - should be on the mend soon we hope.
Connor was accepted to Hofstra last week with a pretty substantial Academic and Achievement Scholarship - while it wasn't in his top choices it now is in our's :). He should start hearing in the next few weeks from the rest of the schools he applied to.
Connor and Sebby both made their Varsity Lacrosse teams - unfortunately they don't meet up during the season so we'll have to hope for a head to head during the State Tournament at the end of the season.
Sebby was invited to his first College Recruitment camp for lacrosse in July at the University of Colorado. It is an invitational camp for the top 200 rising seniors in the country and elite juniors... run by the University of Denver coach - it has over 100 college coaches in attendance. Needless to say it has sparked some confidence in our Scrappy Doo,
Aidan - who lives for March Madness - is especially excited since his team won their March Madness tournament last week end - they had no subs and had to play two games a day so needless to say they were completely exhausted but quite excited to take home hardware.
Stay Healthy -
Best

C. Wow. Such a journey, and ironic, as it's your last round and mom's first today. She got the emend you had suggested-- apparently its standard fare for her protocol. We've lucked out. Moms primary nurse, George, is a true gem and has made our first go around as smooth as could be. Mom loved hearing about the boys and wants me to send her love and good wishes-- she thinks of you often and you're in her prayers " every single morning and night." as for me-- well you know you're my favorite brother-in- law.... Always hoping for good things for you. Love to Amy and the boys... Di
Glad to hear the chemo is over. Many prayers coming your way for an easier, less stressful year. Congrats to Connor!!! Love, Mom
