I wrote about the flow of images and emotions from reading the LAF Manifesto earlier. It was an intense and positive emotional experience. Spencer was also in a sequence they were calling “Chemo Kids” shot the same day we did the interviews with KLRU.

Spencer is very likely to win. His prognosis is excellent at this point and the oncologists refers to the remaining 20 months of chemo as "putting in time" just to make sure. One of the hardest things for any cancer is that you never walk into the doctor's office and get told "the cancer is gone for good". The odds just get better with the passage of time. Spencer's semi-magic number is that after 5 years relapse free, his odds are pretty much back to baseline - he'll have the same odds of cancer as someone who hasn't had leukemia.

It's so hard when children are the ones that get sick. When an older person gets cancer, it's kind of expected as the circle of life. When children get cancer, it's just plain wrong!
