Kanik Is Waiting for a New Trial

Kanik is still waiting for a new trial with Dr. Abou Alfa to open.  In the meantime, he's taking good care of himself and working to keep his protein levels up...and they HAVE gone up in the past month.  (Thanks to all of you who helped with that by making meals for K or spending some time to go out and eat with him.)

Kanik has had pain in his foot for the past few weeks and just got some scans done on it the other day.  Although they may be benign, it looks like there is some abnormal growth in his foot.  Tomorrow (Friday the 15th) Kanik will be meeting with Dr. Maybody, who is an expert imaging techniques, such as MRI, bone scans, x-rays, etc., with the plan being to determine exactly where to do the biopsy and set the exact date for the biopsy. Ling-Fong is staying in Brooklyn with Kanik to help him while he stays off his feet. (We'll be sure to post an update, once we learn more about tomorrow's appointment.)


And, in other news, Kanik has made a huge decision in the work department of his life and that's to concentrate solely on creating art, rather than working on commission.  It's, no doubt, a big decision but Kanik feels great about it and will concentrate on making EXACTLY what he wants to make WHEN he wants to make it.  Not many artists can say they do that for a living, so it's needless to say, pretty awesome.

As always, please continue to text, call, email, fax or page Kanik your love.  Since he's off his feet, for the most part, it might be difficult for him to get out much this week, but we're sure he'd love a visit or a meal or two brought over to him.

If we find out he needs anything else, specifically, we'll let you know.
