Aww, thanks! Not cooking for a day would be lovely. Pizza is his comfort food! He likes ham and Gabriel and I like pepperoni.

All in all, though, he's in good spirits. He's tired and naps a lot more, but isn't it the dream to get to nap more? 😉 As long as I keep providing pizza he's pretty happy.

His genetic test came back clean, which is great. He's just regular unlucky or it's environmental factors. We're very relieved it's not something that he'll pass on to Gabriel.

The radiation oncologist seems to be pretty hopeful it won't come to that, though. So, probably the end of February or early March we'll know more.

This Tuesday will be his 4th round of chemo of 6. After that they'll do some scans and see how the tumor reacted. The hope is that it's shrunk enough to do surgery and have clean margins. If not, radiation with chemo may be the next step.

Tiffany and Tony sent him an amazing LLBean blanket to keep him warm, which he's looking forward to using next week for sure. He's just starting to get mouth sores, but we were prepared with special mouth wash, which is helping.

Happy birthday, dear friend!

A Hobbit bakery-crawl!

Mmm...Sisters of Battle are so great.

Video games and cleaning.

Kinda sad you won't be on FB, but I totally get it. --Angelica
