So, what else is new?

The answer is, thankfully, not  much.  Nothing, in fact.  After six weeks of receiving just the trial immunotherapy drug, my tumor has shrunk another 20% and is now down to 1.7 cm compared to 5.1 cm when I began chemotherapy.  And there are no signs of additional tumor development.

I'm feeling much better and even played a few holes last week!  So, all things considered, I'm feeling blessed and am anxious to get back into fighting trim.  To that end, we're trying to walk daily, gradually increasing our range and degree of difficulty.  I really need to be able to play in our Member-Guest tournament just six short weeks from today, so I've got some work to do.

Thanks to all of you for your continued prayers for us.
