On the eve of 2012, I hope all was good in 2011 for everyone. I am personally really looking forward to 2012. 2011 started off rough with my cancer journey not going well. It really turned around in September when I started my TDM-1 clinical trial, which I continue to be on with good results. I really have so much to be thankful for in 2011. Outside of my cancer stuff my personal stuff is awesome. I really want to thank you all for being part of my team and helping in so many ways. lets all continue to grow in 2012 and never settle for the easy road and continue to challenge ourseelves and help each other. My schedule will be picking up again in 2012, which is a good. I will be heading back to Dc for a few days to help NBCC with thier goal of finding a cure for breast cancer by january 2020. This is a serious motivation for me. I will also be doing the Relay for life in june at Peabody high school. July getting back to do the 3 Day walk. Many more events planned. The docomentary movie about semper fi about the water contamination at Camp Lejeune will hopefully be coming in the early spring to boston. A must see a 75 minute documentary.

I have talked about the new weekly trial I am on. Alot of blood work going on and scans. My tumor markers were at 503 at the start of the trial, 4 weeks ago now they are at 275. That makes us happy,ideally they should be between 0-30. We still have a ways to go, but we are working in the right direction. I will also be having scans end of the month and get results beigining of November. So any chance to celebrate these little victories, Lets do it. October is always a busy time for this household, this year no different. We will be doing the Race for the Cure October 30th for Susan G komen. It will be at the Joe moakley Park in South Boston. It is a 3.1 mile walk or run. I will be doing the walk. It is a great day I love the name a race for the cure,it really describes my life and all those living with Metastatic breast cancer. Please enjoy each day like it was your last and save a little for tomorow. LIVESTRONG

October busy Month

The big art because gala was last night and attended by my brother Ed and me. We of course had a great time and I was so excited to be with him, we had a blast. Art because is a great group of people looking to eridicate Breast cancer. The great thing about Art because is they are looking into the enviromental impacts. Something in the enviroment is causing breast cancer. They funde a 30,000 grant to great young researcher last night to help with this battle. Hopefully someday soon there will be more organization joining in this. Most of the cancers are from the enviroment of some sort. It totally baffles me why more groups are involved in enviromental research. SO October is always busy with the pink washing. It is more of a everyday of the year for me and not just one month a year. We already did the Making strides walk in boston walk withe Pink Angels and some of the family. This was another fun and great event along the charles river. We will be attending the Pink angels comedy show on the 22nd. also another fun and excitiing event. Plenty of more events as well as personel events. So keep smiling and laugh as often as you can. Help others do the same. PEACE

WERE MOVING ALONG

The first week of the new clinical trial is almost complete. Not the greatest week in the world. Now I am embarking on feeling better and better every week. It usually takes me a few treatments to get used to it, so I am planning to have this week go much better. I am currently on a new drug treatment called TDM 1 and another chemo called Taxol. other Patients have had some good results and I am really looking forward to a treatment that is going to work. I will be on weekly treatments. I really filling my body with love and energy. In order for me to win I must take charge and lead by example. When I am cured of this silly, rude thing called Cancer. I will be able to help so many people to tell them what I have done. My doctor and myself will be the healers.This is where I need all your help with all your faith,encouragement and enthusiasm, how can we not win! I am not living in a dream world. I understand the serious of this crazy disease. I defintly do not want no pity or sympathy. I will gladly take hugs and energy. I am really inspired at this moment it has been 5 days since my last treatment. If you talked to me 4 days ago it may have been a diffrent story. I was pretty beat up this week after 2 long days of tratment and test. We all our challenged in our life and the road gets bumpy sometimes,I will ride it out with my eye on the prize. Law of attraction is something I believe in and continue to do. I believe this is why I have so many great people in my life. Always remember life is a journey not a destination. Please enjoy each moment and be thankful. Enough of preaching, I really want to thank each one of you and dont ever stop believing. LIVESTRONG

ENERGY

September 5th, 2011 1 Comment »

That is what I need right now. As you all know I never want pity or sorrow, I prefer good energy and happiness sent my way. I got the results of my scans on Friday and my cancer has spread to my lymph nodes in my chest, stomach and pelvis. I had all kind of tests after that to qualify me for more clinical trials. I also put a rush order on an alternative center in Florida to offer me a scholarship for 3 weeks. I really hope to hear from them soon and hope they offer the scholarship.The good news I am off that horrible medicine. Also the cancer is not in my organs which is great. My wife has been so great as always. We will come up with a great program and kick this cancers ass. I felt horrible having to tell my 13 year old daughter Jackie that my cancer has spread. I knew this ride would not be easy,I believe I will still win, thanks to so many great  friends and family and of course the whole medical and alternative staff. Integrative medicine I believe will take me to the victory line. Once again I really want to thank you all for being on the journey with me. Together we will win.                                                LIVESTRONG       

                                                                Peace and big Love First for you. and then to others.

we lost another great one
