Journal entry by Lucas Twilley

Hi everyone, hope you all are doing well! I just had my next round of scans and have good news to report: still in full remission! At this point we're almost at the 2-year post-chemo mark and the future is looking brighter than ever.

We're getting closer to closing this chapter of my life. One more scan to go in August then we keep eye on bloodwork and symptoms until the 5 year mark. Thanks again for all the love and support, it truly made a difference.

Lastly, the Twilley clan has some news to announce (no, not another baby...sorry mom). In June we will be moving from Italy up to Germany as I'll be taking a new position with the Army Corps of Engineers in Wiesbaden. We're excited for the new opportunity but sad to leave our friends (who are essentially family).

Thanks again for everything. All the best.

-Luke
