Done with 2 surgeries, and now onto treatment

(6/13, from Stu):  Recovering from the surgeries nicely and now just waiting to start the treatment plan.  Even though I'm feeling good, they want me to continue to recover some more (and prepare whatever they need to prepare) -- and then they are going to blast the pie out of me (radiation, chemo, maybe an experimental program) of what couldn't get removed from the surgery through the middle of August.  (The pituitary isn't our focus -- we're focusing on the glioblastoma).

Everyone has been so supportive throughout this process.  Thank you.  I'll try to get some Thank You notes out this week (Jaida has already started!) (Side note from Sandi: As Jaida and I set about writing down the names of those who have helped us over the last few weeks, we found our list to be longer than there were days since this all occurred! Wow!!  We are so lifted up by you all.  Thank you!! Back to Stu now....)

With the wait for the treatment to start, I have some time on my hands -- so gimme a call if you want to hang, go play, etc.  I'm up for pretty much anything, but am thinking about sticking with this:

• I get to drive -- I actually may get a new car since the BMW won't pass smog in a couple months
• I won't drink -- it's actually pretty darn hilarious watching y'all drink
• Good food
• Lots of exercise -- but no biking
• Entertaining movies -- now that they took the pituitary tumor out, I'm not the worst Elefant tearing up during Disney
• Crazy fun -- I'm definitely open to suggestions.  Sandi and I are doing at least 1 thing a day (and others are welcome too!):
• Filoli
• Cantors Museum
• Hakone
• Car driving
• Indoor skydiving
• Beach day
• Fishing
• Hiking with Buddy
• No real working -- I feel fine, but the doctor suggests that I don't work for a while until after my summer treatment.  ESG has been awesome. (Note from Sandi again - ESG crew has been SO AMAZING!! Thank you for the notes, the donuts, the little texts and calls!!)
