Why this Sunday is a Super-Super Sunday....

Yes, there is a little football game. But with the Patriots playing golf and fishing, we don’t seem to have the Super passion this year. C’mon, Arizona? Really?!

The real reason – for the Taylors anyway- is that Sunday, February 1st, will mark the half way point in James’ rad/chemo protocol. As hard as it is to imagine that's twenty-eight weeks down, twenty-eight to go - so long as we stay healthy and are able to stay on track. For those of you keeping score at home, that’d be a total of fifty-six weeks.

Diagnosis and initial surgery aside, behind us are two mediport surgeries, six straight weeks of radiation therapy, two MRIs, four inpatient chemo stays, six Maine Children’s Cancer chemo visits and countless home nursing blood draws.

Before us we still have quite a trek. Five more inpatient chemo stays, nine more MCCP chemo visits, more MRIs and weekly blood draws. But with pinch of good luck we’ll look to wrap in up in late August. Just in-time for JT to head to second grade.

Enjoy your Super Sunday. We’ll be partying too.
Love to you all,
dct

Halfway! Yeah! It'll be done before you know it.
