Happy weekend- wahoo! Things are fine here in Daly City, we're getting sunshine at the moment, nice mellow breeze. Chemo (Gemzar) was fine on wed. We're going to repeat the pet-ct in about 10 days to see if we're getting anywhere with the new protocol. We decided to leave the meningioma in my noggin alone.
Yosemite Samantha is hunting bugs like a lunatic today! Check it out...
Janet, thank you so much for these beautiful flowers and Easter decorations!

Hi guys! Just got carboplatin-Gemzar #2. Human medicine scares the crap out of me. Last cycle my platelets got so low (grade 4 toxicity) I needed a plt transfusion. He said no dose reduction for cycle #2. This is crazy- please wish me luck (and no spontaneous hemorrhage) :) the plan is to repeat PET-CT in 3 weeks... Hopefully we can beat these damn metastatic nodes into submission.

Hey everybody! Just hot back from an overnight trip up to Sebastopol. Planted a new redwood tree and scattered a bunch of poppy seeds. Have chemo on wed, so we're trying to enjoy ourselves to the max! We're also trying to coordinate a trip to Amsterdam for April :)
Summer and the kitties (aka the Meople) are doing great.
Hope you're all doing well and had a great st patty's day!

Yikes! Sorry I dropped off the planet for a sec. I got an elephant sized dose of carboplatin last week, wow. I feel a little bit like jello (or Gumby...?!), what a trip. Thank you to all of my awesome friends who've been helping me out with everything. Including my acupuncturist, who cooked a mineral broth for me!!
Did you guys see the Bay Bridge light up last nite? I want you to know that the artist is a Burning Man artist. Yaaaaaa!!!! You can sponsor one of those sweet LED lights for $50. So cool.

Here's the view from my window right now, hehe...
