Down goes cancer!

Down goes cancer!

This is how I feel after going to NIH to receive my quarterly result today, April 25. It is stable and may even be a smidge smaller. Always a tremendous relief. Once again, I have knocked my brain cancer to the mat.

The conversation was more about seizure control meds and balancing them. Pretty routine stuff. Pretty odd what I consider to be routine.

Busy week coming up. Genet's first Communion is next Sunday. A lot of prep needs to be done in anticipation of visitors from Ohio, KC and St. Louis. Because of this, I will not be able to participate in the Race for Hope in DC on Sunday, May 5th. Consider joining in on this run with a start and finish on Pennsylvania Ave.

And yes, I know the picture shows Sonny Liston on the mat and the quote I used was a paraphrase of "Down goes Frazier." It's my blog.

  1. In the wake of this wonderful news, you are forgiven for not finding the right picture :0). Genet will look beautiful as she receives her First Communion. Enjoy your company!

  2. Thanks Mary. Great to hear from you. Working hard on the house and yard for our visitors. It's our third First Communion in four years. Couple year break before Confirmations start.

  3. Hello Jim,
    First of all, Congrats on the good news! I am reaching out because your post came up in my google alerts as it bears the same name as a non-profit that my friends and I founded after losing our good friend, Joe Mak, to lung cancer in 2009 (www.downgoescancer.org). We came up with 'Down Goes Cancer' to put on white bracelets we sold at the beef and beer (Makapalooza) we hosted shortly after he was diagnosed (and ever since) because Joe's fave sports quote was "Down goes Frazier!". I am the PR Chair/ Vice Chair for DGC and I am reaching out because I would love to send you one of our T-shirts. Please contact me at rae@downgoescancer.org
    Thank you,
    Raelene
