After a small hiatus, USC finally scheduled me to fly back
to Los Angeles for infusion #5 of my clinical trial.
A key component to the trial “cocktail” involves a high-dose
of intravenous Vitamin C.
Because I am a dork, I decided that every infusion, I would
dress in a Vitamin C theme.
1st infusion: a T-Shirt that said “You, Me & Vitamin C”
2nd infusion: a cardigan with 
& 🍋🟩
3rd infusion: a sweater with 
4th infusion: 
earrings &
accessories
and today, my 5th infusion: 
But in much more important news, my numbers are looking
GREAT! In fact, out of about 7 key cancer markers, 5 are “normal.” I mean, I’ve
never been “normal” by any stretch of the word, but now, I am so happy to be.
And the 6th marker is thisclose to being “normal,” too. The 7th one will be
hard to crack, but I’m going to go for it!
I appreciate all the prayers and good juju that everyone has
sent my way. Please keep them coming. I don’t quite yet know what comes after
the trial (or how long I will be on it)… I’m trying to chew the elephant one
bite at a time and just celebrate the small win today.
Oh and P.S. Scans are set for 8/11 at MSK in NYC, if anyone
wants to say special prayers on that particular day.
