A Day of Decisions

Yesterday was a day when Dennis decided what to do next, and thus framed what will happen through September of this year. He has decided to be considered for a clinical trial. This adds the drug commonly called Avastin to the standard radiation and oral chemotherapy regime. Avastin stops the making of blood vessels, and this hits the cancer with a powerful punch. We hope this will give what is left of the cancer cells very little chance to grow again. We have set the date for return at July 6th. It was also a day that I was under the weather, and took off from work. We spent a lot of time considering what is important in life. Kona was much improved, the boat went up on the sale block, and we made arrangements to return to Seattle and Virgina Mason environs. Dennis and I couldn't make it to the Vet's office to get food for all the animals-thanks to our friends for coming to the rescue! I also met with our dog and cat "parent", and we talked over tea about our new household regime. Talk with you at the end of the day, F&D
