Another long day. Mike leaves for England on Saturday, so I apologize for my quick post but I've spent my night with him after a few hours of studying.

I saw a patient today with Metastatic colon cancer, who is younger than I am. It's been a rough night, thinking about his difficult situation. To make it worse - he has children. Life must be so hard for his family. There have been new approaches to the treatment of metastatic colon cancer, so I'll remain optimistic. But I must say that it has made me think about my life and how blessed I am to be here and healthy at this point in my life. I just wish there were more things that i could do for him.
