Yes, Barry is definitely British -- despite being in USA for 30 years -- his consult report starts off "Barry Cooper is a 66-year old British gentleman..."
I don't know why he is doing so well but we are grateful -- maybe it's all the good wishes from his many friends. Maybe it's the tomo machine. Maybe the aloe etc.?
Paul, are you using Difflam? Over the counter in UK and supposedly the best thing for mucositis and sore throat available so far.
Bank holiday (again as the Brits say) Monday (Labor Day) so we have three days to rest and maybe he can take in some calories and do more on getting this thrush infection gone.
Gotta go, TGIF!!
