Feb. 14

Casey and I have a Valentine’s Day date with the ICU at Houston. He’ll be getting brain surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible. At this point he’s ready to get it done and over with, and I share that feeling.

This morning I found a Hitachi advertisement in Wired magazine that featured proton beam therapy at M.D. Andersen Cancer Center. It’s the exact same ground-breaking radiation treatment that Casey will have for six weeks following the surgery. The video on the Hitachi site shares one man’s story. It’s very interesting and I’m very grateful and confident that Casey is getting the absolute best treatment available anywhere.

Watch the video.

P.S. If you have any information on places Casey could stay for an extended period of team in Houston, please send them my way.

P.P.S. If you are from Hitachi, I think you should feature Casey in your next video. Thanks. :)
