Some good news

Mike started round two of the new chemo regimen yesterday. We met with Dr. Neel beforehand and he said out loud what Mike and I had been noticing for more than a week: "There's no doubt it's getting smaller." It being the tumor in Mike's neck.

We have noticed a difference. We're trying not to think too much about it or get really excited. The tumor got smaller once earlier this summer. So let's just say we are cautiously optimistic.

But it was really nice to hear something good for a change. I got my Christmas wish -- I can finally take a deep breath.

That's great news. Thanks for keeping us posted. And try not to rub the weather in so much. You might miss snow for a day, but after the third week I'm sure it would get old again!
