Day 21, Cycle 2

Today puts Woody 3/4 through with the second cycle of the trial drug study. We both went to Sunday School and taught our respective classes. We came home, ate lunch, relaxed, and then decided to take a walk. We walked about three miles. Woody has read and relaxed this evening.

On our walk today, we found this oak tree just laden with acorns. Looks like there will be plenty of fodder for the rascally squirrels this winter. Last year due to our drought, there were hardly any acorns and supposedly squirrels starved during the winter. Looks like this year will make up for last year with a bumper crop. It is rather dangerous to take steps in our yard or on our sidewalks, as they are already so covered with acorns.

We head back to Vanderbilt tomorrow. Woody will have lab work, see Dr. Sosman and the research nurses, and then have a CT scan done...so our day at Vanderbilt will most likely be longer than the last two visits. This CT scan will determine whether he will continue on with a third cycle in this trial drug study.
