Jen had a blood draw yesterday and her platelet levels are higher, but still not high enough to resume chemo. We will do another draw on Friday.
So, Jen and I attended the Brain Tumor conference at UCLA over the weekend. It felt a little like going back to school. We both enjoyed it quite a bit. It was informative, but also gave us the chance to meet others with a similar journey. There were panels on everything from understanding the current treatments used, clinical trials, nutrition, support groups, legal issues, and many more. We even participated in a Qigong session together.

Yesterday, we also visited the WeSpark cancer support center. Jen had her first intake session and is now able to take advantage of all that they offer as well.
