Gianni is our pants on fire 6 yr old. In Nov 07 she was diagnosed with a supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumor (sPNET), a highly malignant, rare brain tumor. Dr. Nalin Gupta (UCSF) performed surgery to completely remove the tumor. She completed 9 mos of high dose chemotherapy with Dr. Paul Fisher/Trish Murphy, NP at Stanford's LPCH (Palo Alto, CA) in Aug 08. Today (19 Nov 2011) she is 1,464 days (4 yrs, 3 days) NED!!! [who's counting...?] Thank you for your positive thoughts!

Houston, Tranquillity Base here. The Eagle has landed. - Neil Armstrong
Bruno had a fun weekend at Uncle David and Aunt Patricia's. We had the whole gang home tonight for BBQ - Gianni was very happy to see Bruno, for about four whole minutes! The Vanco infusions are going well and even Tony will get to try his hand at it tomorrow.
Looking forward to a quiet week.
