Yupp this guys needs a change of clothes. Seems to be fitting from a conversation we had on the weekend about a guy who built a Bear Suit and then tested it - and was beat up pretty bad yet lived. Cant imagine fishing or hiking in such a thing.
Moved in: Thank you to everyone, especially Devin, Ian and Harry for helping unload the moving bin on such short notice. 3 days to load and less then 3 hours to unload. Chris and Tim were also a great help to unload and then help move stuff around and paint. Teresa and I are truly appreciative and thankful to have such great family and friends on both sides of the country.
This is week 2 of unpacking and almost all done. Wish I could find the power supply to my bedroom TV though - would be handy. Since the power cord had a transformer in it - it is not that easy to replace and most likely will end up buying a new TV. Darn.
Treatments: Since we have been here I have gone through 3 treatments and all is going well. The Cancer Center is incredible, those who designed the facility did a great job. Open and comfortable. The nurses are great and volunteers are very helpful. I am very comfortable and confident with the new facility. Some processes are different - though good.
The great news is Genetic testing has already begun. That is 1 of the main objectives to moving was to have this form of testing done. Was certainly not expecting to have the referral on the first meeting with my new Oncologist. That has reinforced our decision to move since we were only hoping for additional testing and clinical trials to happen. It is nice to see we were thinking in the right direction. Right now there are no clinical trials but hopeful something will be available with the testing in progress.
With the upcoming CT Scan next week we hope to see more shrinkage and stability. Will keep you posted as we have progress. For now treatments will continue as we seek alternatives to beating this SOB disease.
In the mean time eveyone - keep on smilin and having fun. I will.
