While this phrase may seem reminiscent of an Agatha Christie tale, this is actually a good news story (meaning, no one is murdered!)

It has been a while since I last posted any major updates, but something remarkable happened recently that I wanted to share. You may recall that at last count there were five pesky tumours making their home in my brain. Well back in January 2023, the radiation oncologist told me that it can take about a year for the radiation to fully take effect… and he was right! The good news, or maybe even the great news, is that one of the tumours has been eradicated by the radiation treatments! While it was the smallest of the tumours that has been “resolved” (that’s the official clinical term), I’m still calling it a big win. Maybe Agatha Christie would suggest that a “murder” did actually occur… 🙂

Alongside this, the other four tumours are holding steady (not growing), and no new ones have appeared – all of which is fantastic news!

And in non-medical news, I had a busy past six months, but some of the memorable moments were: I ran a half marathon at Mt. Rainier, I rediscovered my love of skiing, and… I almost forgot… I finished my MBA!

Now, what to do with all of my newly found free time…? I’m open to suggestions… adventures in 2024 await…!
