A Ray of Light for Rachel

Hey guys!

I just wanted to give you some positive news about Rachel. She went to Houston last weekend for her routine status report. The doctors see no more reason to continue chemo at this time. The cancer has been supressed enough to stop treatment for an unspecified amount of time.

This is REALLY good news because the chemo was breaking her down pretty severely. As her body gets rid of, and recovers from, the chemo she can now get on with her life. The plan is for her to take a vacation to New York, then go back to school. She has 2 semesters left before she graduates with a degree in MIS.

They are being careful not to say things like "remission" or "cured" yet, but nevertheless this is great news for the whole family. Check out her website at www.thestatus.com Her user name is Fulmer and her password is apollo13.

(btw, James I did see Batman Begins the other night... WHOA was it cool! A word of caution to the other coopbros: Do NOT go see this movie while on any hallucinogenic drugs!)
