We Are Slaying.

Brain cancer is..
...slaying.

Andi and Darrell both succeeded today.

After Andi finished this presentation...

...some of  her Block 4 students came up and gave Andi a lesson in slang.  It went like this:

• Students:  "Andrea, do you know the definition of the word slay?"  
• Andi:  "Yes, it means, to kill."
• Students:  "Correct.  But what does it mean in the context of daily conversation, as when discussing Beyonce' and her music?"
• Andi:  "Ummm...it means..."
• Students:  "It means that a performance is of high quality."  (That's my novice paraphrase.)
• Andi:  "Aha! Slaying is to do something well."
• Students:  "Correct.  Today, you are slaying. You slay."

We spent some time conjugating the verb slay until one student stated that we were overthinking it.

Today Andi slayed.  Slaying felt pretty darn good.

At home, Darrell, too, was slaying.

I must include the food pics because sitting down at the table, seeing these two beautiful and nutritious meals made me so appreciative:

Darrell, you slay!

We have kept a cancer notebook since the very first days of this adventure.  With this week's cancer eradication efforts, we outlived our cancer notebook.

 We are, indeed, slaying.
