Things have started to return to normal over here.  I'm still getting used to
going back to our old "normal".  

The Maintenance Phase lasts until around June of 2016.  Mostly just oral meds,
but nothing that strong to make him sick.  All his hair is growing back
already, too.  

It was a crazy year last year, but I'm glad we keep moving in the right
direction.
