Hello Everyone! Its been a while since I've blogged. First off, Dave and I are doing very well and enjoying our summer. We will head back to Little Rock, for SCT #2 in late Aug, early Sept. Early on, I ran into this guy (online), Jason Carpenter, Age 33, with Multiple Myeloma who lives in NYC. He has done a VLOG (Video Blog) of his entire Cancer experience.

I haven't blogged much since we got to Little Rock 3+ weeks ago. Dave did AMAZING and had little side effects or issues to deal with in this "consolidation" bridge chemotherapy.
