Here's one more picture of Moe that made us smile (and shows just how tiny he is):

Going Home
I'm posting really quick as we pack up to go to the airport. We're definitely ready to come home for Adrienne's birthday tomorrow and Daniel's on Wednesday. It's going to be 98 degrees tomorrow. We saw the doc this morning and the plan is to start oral procarbazine and etoposide as soon as possible. The problem is finding the etoposide so hopefully they can find it in Nevada. Adrienne's pain seems pretty stable and manageable for now. The PET scan showed disease everywhere it was last December, plus more in both lungs and a new small lesion in the liver, but overall, it was less than we were expecting. I don't remember the term for the pleural effusion but basically, it isn't the type that's drainable. Getting rid of the cancer will get rid of the effusion.

Dear Adrienne,
Happy Upcoming Birthday!!!
I am so happy to hear you are finally going back home. I am sorry that Hodgkin's is causing trouble in your body. I hope that the doctors find the right medicines for this situation. I love the pictures of Moe and the captions. Very cute! Dogs are wonderful to have around, another reason why being at home is good. the dogs I live with seem to know when I am in need of their canine comfort. Anyway, I am thinking of you Adrienne!!!! <3 ya.

Happy Birthday, Adrienne!
I'm happy to hear that you guys have a plan. I didn't have any problems with the procarbazine (although it is one of those $$$$$$ meds that make you thankful for insurance). Make sure you order it a day or two early because the pharmacies don't always carry it in stock.
Have a safe trip home.
Hope you are enjoying a wonderful day celebrating your birthday Adrienne.
So glad that you got to have lunch with Duane while in NYC : )

Happy Belated Birthday, Adrienne! I hope your trip home was easy, and you're relaxing with Moe now!
