running out of vaccine

Mark has been doing great since the last post. He continues to take the monthly Temodar and has been tolerating it well. He does seem to get a bit more tired than before; however, he still gets out and works out hard on his bike and in the gym. There have been no signs of regrowth in the last MRI and we have our next one scheduled for Nov. 21st. He has been continuing with the vaccine; however, we got a call this week that the tumor cells they have in storage aren't reproducing quick enough for them to make another vaccine, so it could be a while before he gets another dose. Maybe it is a silver lining to know that his tumor cells are underachievers and don't want to grow fast?!
