Let’s take a walk!

DaBanbWhat a great time had by all!

Couldn’t have asked for a better day and a more special occasion.  Cops, pepper spray and a parade of pregnant ladies.  Who would’a thought?

Otto whooped some a$$ on this um…8 mile hike.  Thank you to RobKat, Shab, Ding Dong, Team Slye, Summer, Gayle, HLo, Flower and Kerry for all that you did to make this day happen!

Pictures are still coming in but here are a few albums.

P.S. On the way back something happened that had me thinking about the sanctity of life and I can’t ignore it. Please, take a minute and mend a bridge today.  Co worker, ex-BFF, or family member.  Tomorrow would be great, but for now all we have is today.

Much Love, Lee

Spontaneous Remission DAY!!

 

Well folks, we are through the fourth round of Chemo and I’m still feeling GREAT…Give thanks!  As with the last few rounds I decided to walk to and from the infusion center (6 miles; round trip!) seriously folks; I think this has had a lot to do with my success so far!  I also firmly believe that in addition to the walking, my diet and herbal supplement protocol have been keeping me going and feeling as good as I do.  Lastly, it’s all YOUR FAULT…yes, YOU!  All of you in fact; I’m receiving so much loving support from friends, family and everyone else around me that I’m able to JUST focus on healing and feeling better every day.  Thank You!  Last week my friend Jen was out of town learning about a new healing technology that sounds very interesting…but that made room for a special treat; last Thursday I received an amazing massage from my partner Indra, then we enjoyed a great restorative Yoga class at the Yoga Tree together…Give Thanks!

 

So; today is my third CT/PET Scan…Yes, I get to go back into the big donut!  If you read the previous postings about the scans you’ll know that it’s a pretty simple/straight forward procedure.  As always, information is power and I’m eager to learn how well the chemo and other healing practices I’m employing are working!  The scan will be compared to the last pre-Chemo scan and they will be able to determine the current state of the disease in my body…I get the results next week and will be sure to let you all know how we did.

 

I do have one favor to ask: Please take a moment today to “Give Thanks” for all the amazing gifts we are given in this life and the beauty that surrounds us…and then think SPONTANEOUS REMISSION!!!  Yep, if we all focus our collective energy and intention before and during todays scan, this whole thing could be behind us by next week…now that would be SWEET!  Huh?

 

Have a great day, much Love and Gratitude to every one of YOU!

 

Give thanks,

Been a While…

Hello my Friends; yes it’s been a while…but I’ve been pretty busy!  As you know, my full time job these days is managing my journey back to complete health and real healing.  Part of that process lately has been the chemotherapy.  I’m now through three rounds and feel like I’m Thriving rather than Surviving this process so far.  Fortunately it hasn’t disrupted the rhythm of normal life completely and I’m feeling great and have remained super active!  Give thanks!

 

As you know from Lee’s last post we all went up to Tahoe the week after my first infusion.  It was a great trip and yes, a LOT of fun to go Snow Boarding for a day.  Like I said, my energy has remained relatively high and I’m finding the more active I am the better I feel.
