“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled [brain tissue] yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my [high-energy photon] lamp beside the golden door!”

With surgery set for Wednesday, Monday was a big prep day for Colin, but he demonstrated yet again that our careful planning can be rendered irrelevant by the result of a single blood culture.

Well, today was Colin’s No Mo’ Chemo party, but for some reason, the chemo didn’t put on its listening ears.

Help Colin, Support St. Jude Colin has received the bulk of his care at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, which performs invaluable research on childhood cancers and other lifethreatening illnesses and provides its services absolutely free of charge to all patients. We ask that you consider St. Jude for your charitable giving to help reduce suffering and improve the lives of children across the world.
Many of Colin's supporters have donated to St. Jude through Mom's St. Jude Heroes fundraising site (an artifact of the marathon in December), www.mystjudeheroes.org/colin.
