Helloooooo...

The amazing turkey and its cook, Amy. Ta da!

Has it really been almost 2 weeks since I have written. I will make the recap short and sweet.

Chemo:

Had my 5th treatment on November 26th after some deliberation. My white counts were still low, even after putting it off a week. But they decided to go ahead anyway. I have been fine since. No new reactions.

Other good news is that after my 4th treatment I had a CAT scan to see how the "masses" were reacting. One has shrunk 50%, and the other 80%. I think that is great.

Jim & Kathy's visit:
So awesome to have them here, as usual. We packed tons of stuff into the 9 days they were here, and of course they worked like crazy on the house.
-Kathy's Birthday we went to Bolt in 3D. I absolutely loved it - the hamster stole the show.

Kathy and Matt with Kathy's Bday gift.

(Why is it that as a Neal no matter what the gift is, you have to put it on your head? Even when it is a pillow cover.)

-Christmas Shopping in Waikiki

-Thanksgiving was at the Palolo house. Traditionally in Hawaii, since so many people are here and their family is not, you invite who ever you talk to that doesn't have a place to go. We ended up with 18 people stopping by during the course of the evening. Looking back it was crazy, but really great. I didn't get a shot of everyone, but here's various moments during the day.

Peace,MEA
