Hi Sandy. Thanks for asking. Everything is calm for the moment. I must admit it took me a while to settle myself down after that fiasco. Mom seems OK right now, and I am taking out my notes and calendar, to make sure our plan is still on track. I literally lost my bearings, so to speak, after the scare. The one good thing is that I now have a current PET, bone, and CT scan to use for further surveillance. I think she may be coming up on her next MUGA as well, as time went by quickly during the crisis.

That whole mess took a lot out of me, and I was really crushed by Linda's loss. It hit me hard, as I felt that I knew her and Al personally. God Bless both their souls for helping us all so much. I hope I might meet Al someday if I can get away.

I have decided to increase Mom's dosage of resveratrol after reading some more promising research. I am also considering increasing her IP-6, as it seems to show promise in boosting the immune system and inhibiting PI3K. I am looking for a source of d-limonene. I beleive the Vitamin Shoppe can order it. I have to look. I didn't mention that I have doubled the amount of green tea I use in the brew to 24 bags per batch, approx. 2 gallons. I am of the opinion that you really can't consume too much green tea, as long as it is naturally decaffeinated.

Take Care,
Tom
