Loquacious

Brain cancer is...

Saturday at Twisted Vine

...loquacious.

Talk, talk, talk.  Darrell woke up chattering today.  We've had the pleasure of Alex's company this weekend, with Tiana at another Texas interview. Alex and I have enjoyed Darrell's (1) high word count and (2) wittiness today.  One example from the myriad of quips:  "Hand me the keys, Eloise!"

Yes, he started talking before Twisted vine.  Also, lest you're concerned by the number of wine glasses in the pic, above, I had a flight of whites. 

November Blood Results

Darrell's blood work results from Thursday are in.  Recall that Dr. Park taught us to read the results because we won't see him this month.  All the counts are in the normal range for cancer patients.  Darrell's  nuetrophils  are at a cancer-low of 1.6 k/cmm, but Dr. Park said a count as low as 1.5 k/cmm would be acceptable for Darrell to start chemo on Monday.  Also, Dr. Park told us that blood counts climb daily after chemo, so they would probably be higher if we tested Monday.

Alex suggests that we share the results with Dr. Cloughesy and team and ask when we should be concerned.  For now, all systems are go for the next round of chemo.

Happy Saturday, Team D.  We are thankful for you.
