Our new House Mate.
In some ways, a lot has happened since our last update. I just finished chemo #2 here in Vermont. And my particular type of adenocarcinoma is growing so slow as to be considered “Stable”, so we’re all feeling great about doing some live “ShackCasting” during Maple Syrup season? Stay tuned. Tree Tap on Tik Tok.
Last week I recorded brand new song with my brother Mike and his wife Chandra, Brothers Richard on blazing electric guitar, and yours truly as producer, keyboard player and cheerleader/coach. We are closing in on 10 tracks. I truly love these songs, and there’s a special kind of joy you get recording your brothers.
And lastly, there’s a very exciting possible development on our “All Good People” movie. It’s the story of Alan White from “John and Yoko” to 50 years of “Yes”. If it comes true, it would make the movie exactly what Alan would have loved.
Oh, yeah. This is supposed to be my health update. I’m still wagging my tail. Lisa and I are on another adventure. The good news is that my cancer is showing no signs of growing any faster. My oncologist is hoping it stays stable, and so are we. Still, I won’t “SugarCoat” it. Chemo sucks in ways that are hard to put into words. So until our 3 month Pet Scans and CT Scans, which are due near the end of March, no news is going to all be good news!
Having come from a good Catholic family – 8 siblings spread out over almost 2 decades, what a blessing to get to spend some real time together. That’s the fun these days!

As my chemo good effects start happening – fingers crossed in the next few weeks, we’ll have some more short podcasts and a little behind the scenes health news for those interested.
As always, your prayers, texts, and little emojis all warm our hearts and remind us of the amazing people in our lives. Thanks so much.
Bob and Lisa Rivers
