Today I started radiation treatment. It was easy. Now I just
need to watch myself and make sure I don’t get sick. They
will be keeping an eye on me and on the 10th, I get one more
dose. That will be it for the radiation part of this and then
I’ll start chemo again. Just wanted to let you guys know what
was going on. Talk to you soon.

Some say it's just a part of it: We've got to fulfill the book...

Geoff is a Part Of It for the Library Foundation Of Los Angeles

“I WISH I WAS A BOOK”

Founded in 2007 by Christopher Sleboda and Kathleen Burns, Part of It works with artists to create products for causes they are passionate about. Sales from products benefit charities chosen by the artists.

Part of It stems from our belief that artists (and conscientious consumers) can make a positive difference in the world by supporting causes close to their heart. Expressions of protest, simple declarations, moving graphics that encourage conversation and dialogue—there are many ways to enter into and encourage civic discourse. We believe activism can be fun, personal, beautiful and engaging; we can all play a part in making a better world for ourselves, for our communities, and for future generations.
