Geoff Beats Leukemia 
Hey Geoff, I’m your original computer Luddite thus this is the first blog I have ever read (Is that the right terminology??). What a dramatic stunt you had to pull to drag me screaming into the 21st century and make my blog reading debut. You are an absolute inspiration, Young Man. I read with great interest (and an element of horror), your journey thus far. But in your inevitable Hamilton style, I see professionalism, even with this challenge albeit not of your choosing. It sounds like you are in the best of care and being the beneficiary of some of the latest technology. Keep up the good fight, Geoff. Cheers. Rich
