We Won't Be Scared to Death

This is a spooky time of year.  It seems only right to add a Halloween image to our blog since Roger and I are "whistling past the graveyard" as they say.

We know those nasty leukemia cells are likely lurking in the dark recesses of his bones.  He had only that one round of chemo in September - probably not enough to wipe it out completely.  We can't use chemo now without the risk of killing the good T-cells that Roger just received.   On November 4th we'll be back in Salt Lake City for a recheck and a bone marrow biopsy, so we'll get to see whether the T-cells are holding their own.  All we can do now is wait and hope our little heroes are in there fighting.

In the mean time, we go about our day-to-day activities and try not to focus on our fears.  We're looking into buying a used car and I'm making a meatloaf for dinner.  Now THAT'S a scary life!

  1. Hey, if meatloaf doesn't scare you, nothing can!
    And some cowboy food might be just the thing for those hard-working T-cells!

  2. All those sugar crazed ghouls running around always puts a fright into me! Thanks for always taking the time to let us all know how and what you two are doing. It is appreciated.
