Congratulations! to two of my living heroes!

This post is as a congratulations to two of my living heroes for their recent recognitions of their breakthrough work in the detection of blood cancers.   Denise Wells M.D. and Mike Loken PhD --  your work has changed medicine, and your lives have changed mine.   Bravo! 

this is a video that is so great -- and I know the reason that they work so hard, is for these kids, and so many others.

I am really enjoying the classes, it is fun that the entire family is now doing it! I see someone else posted this question, but I don't see the answer. Do you have a pointer to the vocabulary blog/wiki?  You also mentioned a "ettiquette explanation" - I'd love to review it.  

 

Thanks

Kenny

Hi Melisa. Thanks for the heads up on the video for the pomse. I found it under the 'current adult poomse' title. One thing I was looking for was a list of vocabulary that we use. I'm slowly getting the counting but am having a hard time understanding what is said when we bow and when we finish for the session and throw our fist in the air.

thanks
