Better with You

Brain cancer is..

...so much less overwhelming because of you.


GBM is never far from our minds. It lurks.  Its treatment drives the rhythms of our days and nights.  

However, your constant stream of support helps us put the focus where it belongs in our lives:  On how much caring and goodness is in people and how willing they are to share it with grace, love, and humor. 

Next week will be five months since diagnosis.  That's a lot of days, and yet you just keep it coming.  Just in the last 24 hours, for example:


  • David and Mitra called, just to share their love and check in.
  • Denise dropped off more of Darrell's burritos.  He hides them; don't ask him to share.
  • Pablo and Rosie fed us their favorite empanadas, homemade rice, and dessert.  So good!
  • Dara and the Ciortans shared curry and rice.  Not going to make it through tomorrow.
  • Stuart and Amanda drove down and had dinner with us. We had a great conversation and thoroughly enjoyed their company.  More awesome people.
  • Gotta love a good dino hat!          
  • Of nearly equal importance:  Stuart and Amanda are willing to give the selfie kiss a try:
    ...with dino hats.  Extra points for difficulty.
    Thanks, Team D, for steadfastly helping us keep our priorities straight.
