Homecoming

Ready to leave Stanford


Caitlin's Honors Piano Recital

Day + 20 Health score 82

What a wonderful feeling to be home. We drove into Lincoln about 4:00 PM after sitting in the ITA all morning. My labs are essentially back to normal. We were greeted by Caitlin and Rebecca, who somehow seem more beautiful than usual. Barbie was so relieved to be home and not have to split herself, as she has done for the last month. The first thing I did was to go stand in my backyard and soak in the most beautiful day in my recent memory; 75 degrees, scattered clouds and everything is green and growing.

The timing was nice because Caitlin performed in the Honors recital tonight. She played one of my favorite pieces and was transcendent. It just feels good to be home.

I go back next Tuesday for a heart biopsy at Kaiser, Santa Clara and follow up at Stanford for oncology and BMT. It will be a busy day, but at least we are home during Barbie and Caitlin's Spring break.

Well, well, Boppo, It's fantastic to see you out of the hospital gown and enjoying a beautiful day with your women. Is it possible you're on the other side of this opportunity/challenge? Yippee!!!!

It must be the ice cream, I wish I ate some while in E1, all I could put down were popsicles.
Still time to change careers and became a U2 pilot with such a amazing speed of recovery!
Great going, you did it!!!!!!!
Time to celebrate!
