Throwback Thursday!
Several years ago playing Mario Cart on the Wii with Frank, Jon, and Dan. Frank always stood close to the TV and would try to block us from seeing the screen. We were also never allowed to go on the "Rainbow Road" level, because he was scared of heights. Fun times.
Thank you Frank!
I found this THANK YOU card today and thought I'd share it. Frank loved his job so much!

"When you die, that doesn’t mean you lose to cancer. You beat cancer by how you live, why you live and the manner in which you live.
So live.
Fight like hell, and when you get too tired to fight, lay down and rest and let someone else fight for you."
-- ESPN's Stuart Scott on beating cancer
Frank continues to help others.
On Christmas Day, I was fortunate enough to deliver scarves, sleeping bags, and blankets, to people in need. Frank had been working on this project for the past year and I was honored to represent him (and Team Frank the Tank) for the delivery/distribution. Here are some photos:
Happy Holidays!

Frank continues chemo.
Despite having a little seizure this morning, we finally made it to Frank's chemo infusion. Or as Frank calls it: "my poison infusion." It's going to be a long day!
Happy Halloween!
Tonight, Frank was able to celebrate Halloween with family and friends at his sister's house. His Aunt was nice enough to make this sweet scarecrow costume for him.
More chemo.
Frank had another chemo infusion, today. He'll have another one in 2 weeks, followed by another MRI on November 11th.
Frank's MRI today.
Today, Frank had another MRI at UCLA. It showed NO GROWTH in the tumor(s), so that's good news. He has 2 more rounds of chemo to do, until his next MRI in 4 weeks.
Frank at OT!
Today, Frank was working on his finger fitness. Occupational therapy Monday's at Hoag Hospital. We goto UCLA on Wednesday for his next MRI.

Frank continues chemo.
Franks counts looked good, so he began another round/infusion of chemo today! We'll see if it's working on Oct 14th at his next MRI appointment! Fingers crossed!
Update on Frank!
Well, Frank Lozoya had a MRI last week and unfortunately it wasn't good news. It showed there was growth of his tumor. His dr. said that was causing his mobility issues (and not the previous radiation). He is going to start a new/stronger chemo today (Monday). From what I've read about it online, it seems to work for his type of tumor. Fingers crossed!
