Today’s Reflection:
This we is starting out great. A good
night’s sleep. A very good visit with my Oncologist and a visit from PT-Home
Care. The oncologist is running a new blood test to see if CLL is still
present. I will return to a low-dose…1 tablet a day…of the treatment. I will
return for a follow-up on 20 Jul, to see the next step. It is quite a relief for
me. The PT lady came to my house and evaluated me. As fast as I’m recovering,
we will hold off on home PT. Everything I heard today is very encouraging.
I watched World Cup last night as Mexico fell to England. My brother had bought Mexico Soccer shirts for his staff. It was a tough loss, but Mexico played a good game. I can’t understand how Trump could call the head of FIFA over the Red Card call on the American player. When FIFA overturned the Red Card penalty, I was shocked. The Athletes deserve better. I will watch tonight’s game with the US.
Historical events
Good to know:
Although Horseshoe Crabs are arthropods, they are more closely related to
scorpions and spiders than they are to crustaceans. They are also the only
living members in their Order, Xiphosura.

Today’s Trivia:
Raven Steals the Light
Darkness once enveloped the world until Raven—the clever
trickster of Pacific Northwest tribes—hatched an ingenious plan. Transforming
himself into a pine needle, he was swallowed by the chief's daughter and reborn
as the chief's grandson.
The doting grandfather kept precious boxes containing the
sun, moon, and stars. When no one was looking, Raven stole these treasures and
flew through the smoke hole, releasing celestial light into the sky.
His feathers, once white, turned permanently black from the smoke as he escaped. This beloved Haida and Tlingit tale explains both the origin of light and why ravens are black—showcasing how creation stories often contain explanations for natural phenomena.
