McCain and Obama both gave such gracious, uplifting speeches. It's a proud day for America as we experience how smoothly and non-violently our democracy works. May God grant President-elect Obama the wisdom and strength necessary to deal with the grave challenges ahead.
Graham had a very bad day yesterday. He was in so much pain from his back. He needed to take pain pills all day, and was sort of dazed and slightly incoherent for much of the day. He had his PET-CT scan yesterday, and lying flat on the hard table for over an hour made the pain worse.
Today, we'll spend most of the day, and likely part of the evening, at Stanford Cancer Center. Graham will have his usual blood tests, then meet with Dr. Advani to hear the results of all the recent scans, and then hopefully start a new round of chemo, probably R-CHOP. We probably won't get home until 9pm.
THANKS: Thanks to the many of you who have kindly sent condolences to Graham regarding his mom's death. Lauren, thanks for the interesting book. Thanks so much, Pam, for the delicious beef stew. Ella, spaseba for the wonderful chicken soup and borscht.
