What is a 3-4 month life extension for a traditional mortal may turn out to be a 3-4 year or 3-4 decade life extension for the remarkable and irrepressible Mr. Michael Bischoff!! These are my words!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
What a gift you and Jenny and your family are to us all. Blessings on all of you in this new Optune chapter, and your family's work to incorporate all of the wisdom you have to move forward. much love, Pam
Hi, Michael. As I read your beautiful post, Judith, one of my kitties, was on my lap. Before I was done reading, she stretched long, then bundled herself back into my lap in such a way that my one hand was cradling all 4 of her little paws, and the other her head. I couldn't keep scrolling down, much less type a response. So I sat there, suspended in tenderness and love, holding her feet and head, treasuring her glorious soft self, listening to the Soul Stirrers' gospel. Surrendering to the nourishment of this moment. I didn't realize 'til later, when Judith had shifted, that the David you wrote about was dear David Miller. We weren't as close as it sounds like you two were, but he also remains in my heart. Thank you for bringing him in.
Tho I saw Jenny briefly a few months ago, I haven't written you that I've been journeying through breast cancer since January. My experiences are not as harsh as yours, yet I feel kinship. I fully am in your corner about the importance of 3 or 4 more months. I'm glad you got the cap to fit, and that Jenny and you have each other in this moment. With tender love, Erika
Hello Michael,
Hopefully, "Optune" can yield significant "opportunity" for your healing and and journey. Also, you indicate your thoughts and words are a wee bit tangled, but sure doesn't seem that way to me. Seems like you've got more things "straight" in life than most others ever see or experience. Thank you. Sending hugs...
Wow - I thought I'd had a full week with tons of family and friends in town, "invading" my living space, "disrupting" my normal pace and surroundings. As always, after reading what you share, I gain a new perspective and can see things in new ways. Reminding me, once again, to chill the fuck out for crying out loud and embrace the vibrancy of life bubbling around me. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing about David, and taking us along on your journey. Your courage is way beyond my ability to put words around it. My family and i carry you always in our hearts and prayers.
