MRI OK

We met with the oncologist and got the results of Manford's MRI--no change from the previous one, which is good news--maybe not quite as good as the prior one, which showed shrinkage, but the doctor still thinks it means that he has the genetic whatchimicallit that makes the tumor vulnerable to this particular chemotherapy (which only about 1/3 of people have). So we continue with the chemo, starting this month's round a couple of days late because Manford has some kind of infection in his ankle--swollen and painful for the last couple of days--but otherwise he is feeling ok. We are missing Joseph, but looking forward to hearing all about his trip, if not from him, maybe from my network of informants...Manford's birthday is coming up on the 22nd, so we are trying to think of a suitable celebration. Joseph will be home so I guess we can have American junk food--Fritos and marshmallows?
