BREAKING NEWS

Last night, Cosmo's Bar Mitzvah was magical. And Nancy was truly amazing. To have gotten out of a hospital bed only 24 hours earlier-- then show up dressed to the nines and looking like a million shekels was nothing short of extraordinary. Oh, and Cosmo did pretty well, too!  😉In fact, he killed it-- and so did his Mom. An unforgettable time was had by all.

HEADLINES

Nancy was admittedly pretty tired this morning, but fortunately had a previously scheduled appointment at the UCLA oncology outpatient clinic. They did a round of blood tests-- and while her hemoglobin and platelet numbers were all still high-- her ANC (immunity numbers) had slid a bit lower. We're back in the clinic again tomorrow and will be monitoring the situation closely-- hoping she won't have to be readmitted. Stay tuned the blog for further details-- and in the meantime, your continued good thoughts and prayers are appreciated.

POST SCRIPT

What a beautifully emotional weekend. Watching our son work so hard and impress so many people with both his intelligence and soulful kindness was incredibly inspiring. And we were so happy to have both sides of our family there to witness it all. Then today, I delivered a eulogy for our late, great friend Gary Glasberg at a Memorial Service at Paramount. And even though I was kind of exhausted from last night-- I still did the very best I could to speak to what has become so very important in my life in the wake of both Gary's untimely passing and Nancy's soon-to-be-eradicated illness. Balance. We are all a work in progress-- and sadly, nobody gets out alive. But now, more than ever, I'm determined to keep trying to be the best husband, father, son, brother, friend, and showrunner I can-- all while also making the necessary time and space for myself to breathe. Nancy's intense strength and focus on her fight have been more helpful on those fronts than I could have ever imagined. And watching young Cosmo (with his old soul) eloquently explore the many ways we are all connected lifted my spirits beyond belief. I love my family. I love our friends. WE ALL LOVE NANCY, and...

ALL IS WELL!
