Pre Race Update

I had Avastin treatment #2 Thursday. All went well. The latest schedule is MRI12/13, back to Duke for a doctor's appointment 12/16. New round of vaccines start first of the year. I am anxious to start the vaccinations again, but I am also glad to have the short break from the monthly trips to Raleigh.

Marti has also gotten a well deserved break. She returned from a week in Florida yesterday

I have decided, with some gentle encouragement from a couple of close friends, to participate in the half marathon Sunday. I say participate because I am afraid it would be a misnomer to say I am going to run.

I am also adhering to no shave November. I had a co-worker stop me earlier this week to ask me if I was tired. She later clarified that she realized I had not shaved and thought maybe I had overslept. Let me just add I have not shaved since Monday and today is Friday and I can count on one hand the number of people who have noticed.

As always thank you so much for caring. Your prayers and well wishes help more than you can possibly know.
