    Hey folks,

    I have been in touch with Josh, and told him people have been asking about him. I am here to provide an authorized update from the man himself.

    He has completed the initial 2 days of chemo which involve receiving the harshest of the two drugs – cytoxin. It is making him nauseous but no vomiting (3 cheers for spewlessness).

    His early TIL numbers from the lab are looking good (hoping for a 50B yield) and the cells are viable.

    His spirits are good and his worst thing is the boredom (boy can I relate to that).

    I will post an update on myself a little later after I take care of a bunch stuff that has been accumulating on my desk for the past couple of weeks.

    – Paul
