Well, I certainly haven't been a consistent blogger this year! But, here's an update for you. Since my last post, I have had Rounds 35 and 36. Both were the usual fare although the side effects have been a little stronger. Nothing too unmanageable, though. I'm thinking that perhaps the spring pollen may be part of it since your body can only take so much before it reacts - and some of my side effects are like allergic reactions.
Tomorrow I will have my bi-monthly CT scan. This will give us a read on whether the cancer growth they picked up in January is continuing. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
In the off week between rounds, we decided to go to Boston to look at some colleges for Vicki. We looked at BU (my alma mater), BC, Northeastern and Tufts. Vicki liked BC and Tufts the best (BU was last on her list!). We also got a chance to see a little of the city with the kids - a visit to Fanieul Hall, dinner in the North End, some bowling and pool playing at a new (huge) place near Fenway Park and even some Candle Pin bowling (a unique New England version).
We also booked our tickets for a family vacation this summer - England and France for 2 weeks! Now we need to lock down hotels, etc. It'll be fun to do something exciting with the kids before they get too old!
So that's what we've been up to these last few weeks. Hope you all had a great Easter/Passover holiday! BB

Hi Brian, It sounds like you've been having fun. I'm sure it was a treat for you to spend time in Boston with your family and let learn more about your college years. The trip to England and France sounds just awesome. How fun to have that to look forward to!
Love, Carolyn
Hope the volcanic ash cloud blows over before you head to Europe.
