Day 14.

Sunday we went to church, WW and SM had to be there early, for their jobs, Greeting and Security respectively, but GH#3, Zack drive us a little later. A lovely service, but for this old Grandma the music is loud, I had to take my one hearing aid out (I only have one ear, actually two but one has nerve damage so I only need one aid), sorry, TMI? I rode home with WW and she picked up sandwiches, for them, I chose the leftover pasta rigatoni. TMI again? Then it was time for the World Cup final. Did you watch it? I was for Spain, I like Lamine Yamal. They liked Argentina, and Messi, except Zack doesn't like to watch soccer, so he disappeared for the duration. I was so amused by granddog, Duke, who does like to watch soccer, for short periods of time. WW captured a picture for me, for you.

He loses interest when they stop for penalties, he likes the action and follows the ball most of the time. It was Duke's 10 month birthday yesterday, he celebrates in someway every day! WW also gave me these photos.

You can see the size difference between Duke at 10 months, and Zoey at 8 years.

Zack is our dog whisperer.

SM & WW took pizzas, wings and salads to their good friends the Domaracki', and we eight had a wonderful long supper together, talking after a great meal. Then we went outside to enjoy their view. They live up above Las Vegas, with a fantastic view of the lights in the distance.

Another great day!

Dr. Zhen Xu

A revolutionary new cancer treatment called Histotripsy is showing incredible promise by literally liquefying tumors using focused sound waves—no surgery, no chemo, and no radiation needed.

Developed by pioneers Dr. Zhen Xu and the late Dr. Charles Cain at the University of Michigan, this FDA-approved technology is now being used at leading hospitals like Johns Hopkins and the Cleveland Clinic.

How it works:

- A robotic arm delivers precise high-intensity ultrasound waves straight to the tumor.

- These waves create tiny gas bubbles inside cancer cells that rapidly expand and collapse.

- The mechanical force destroys the tumor cells, turning the mass into liquid debris that the body naturally clears away.

- It also appears to stimulate the immune system to better recognize and attack remaining cancer cells.

- Because it relies on mechanical disruption rather than heat or radiation, it spares healthy surrounding tissue.

Patients often undergo the quick outpatient procedure and go home the same day. It is currently treating liver tumors, with trials expanding to kidney and brain cancers.

This could be a game-changer in the fight against cancer.
