September 3 -- Arnie's Excellent Adventure

Hi All,

Hopefully everyone had a great long weekend. The Raiders  won 2 of 3 games this weekend so not too bad a start to the season. Arnie was literally an arm chair coach (as jordi reported ) yelling at the computer as he watched the boys play.

Arnie's eating adventures continue as he adds new foods to his repertoire. He  began by eating certain foods that he knew would agree with him. Unfortunately, he had a tendency to eat the particular food in question until he just couldn't look at it anymore and so he would move on to find a new favourite food. It has been interesting trying to keep up and guess when he would get sick of eating a certain food. Anyhow, he has added yogurt and cereals and other wonderful choices to his list. Last night he even tried a beer.

Today, we met with the oncologist to discuss resuming chemo. All in all they are happy with Arnie's progress but would still like him to put on some weight. He will start chemo in 3 weeks and do 8 cycles. We will get to see the seasons change as we travel down the road to Montreal and visit the Royal Vic.

Keep up the good fight and we wish everyone a happy and healthy new year.
Liz
