Congratulations Law School Friends! (and an update)

Hi everyone...sorry we haven't posted in awhile. After hearing the great news last week, we celebrated with friends and have been breathing a little easier since.

Nick started chemo again this week. He went in on Friday and has been wearing his pump since then. He'll get detached today. The funny part is that he decided to go to a bachelor party in Portland this weekend - pump and all. He doesn't let it get in the way of anything and I'm proud of him for that.

Doctor Back (Nick's oncologist) stopped by when we were in the infusion room on Friday. He said he talked to Nick's liver surgeon, Dr. Yeung, and that based on Nick's scan, Dr, Yeung is ready to start meeting with Nick about a potential liver resection. This is exciting news. A lot of people don't qualify for resection and/or they have to go through many more rounds of chemo before they can do the surgery. So this is very good news, whether they decide to do the surgery now or not.

We'll meet with Dr. Yeung in the next couple weeks and we'll keep everyone posted.

We want to give a shout out to all of our Seattle law school friends who passed the bar this weekend...Lauren, Jake, Ty and Jeremy...nice work you guys!

While the boys were in Portland, the girls got together for some wine and good food last night. Ladies, thanks for the wonderful evening.

For those of you who aren't in the Northwest right now, the Fall colors are AMAZING this weekend. Pirate and I are going to the dog park in a little while so I'll try and get some good photos to post.

Love,

Sally and Nick
