Yet another reason to pass legislation sponsored by Sen. Jon Bramnick and Senate President Nick Scutari to prohibit insurance pre-approval requirements completely.

Just had a PET scan at MSK. Cross your fingers for no progression. #alkpositive #lungcancer

Here's a quick summary of my PET scan results from Grok. Basically, it's a mixed bag. Most of the cancer that had spread across my body is now gone, but the initial lung tumor is still there and possibly more active. There's also another spot on my shoulder that's showing

I had my oncologist appointment yesterday to review my PET scan. As expected, it's not clear what the results mean. The doctor thought it's odd that all of my treatments are working everywhere except for that one spot in my right lung (which already was radiated). Here are the

Here's a well-written story about a small piece of Revolutionary War action here in New Jersey. Great job by David Zimmer.

A life well-lived, which is all any of us can hope for.

My rare, oncogenic ALK+ lung cancer is very likely linked to Covid, IMHO.

I'm not smart enough to know if my cancer was caused by covid infection(s) or the mRNA vaccine to protect against it. I do find it highly suspicious, however, that within a year or so of both infection/vaccination I developed a rare cancer. I hope people are researching this.

This lazy dog says Happy Easter!

Some cool shots of a turtle that I found crossing my yard to get to the stream in the back. I checked in a little bit later to find it chilling in the water.

Sovereignty beat Journalism. I'm sure there's a witty quip to be made. #KentuckyDerby
