Newest Update

Journal entry by Rachel Peterson

Hi all,

Been awhile since I've posted an update. Sam's latest scans did show a couple of suspect spots. He started an oral chemo and is getting fitted for an Optune device. If you haven't heard of Optune, check it out, it's pretty cool! There are very few side effects, which is nice. Very basically, it's a wearable device that uses electric fields to slow or stop cancer cell division.

In other news, Sam GRADUATED!!! He graduated with his Associate's degree in Liberal Arts & Sciences from Lake Superior College. And he graduated with honors, because obviously :) It was a really cool ceremony, thanks to all that made it happen!
