with updates less frequently than halley’s comet (how ’bout that dated reference), i’ve left a couple people wondering if i’m still alive.  yes, i’m still alive.

while this blog ended up chronicling  my reflux/barrett’s, that’s not really the life i live day-to-day.  to assuage any concerns: my scope and biopsies came back with a reduction in inflammation (expected) and no increase in either surface area or severity of the dysplasia (good).  a few estranged acquaintances reached out and asked if i was ok… i finally realized it was driven primarily by my last blog post.  so… yes, i’m still alive.

i’ll make a half-hearted attempt at another update sometime in the near future.
