Good luck! All six of us will be thinking of you!

Good Ruck Grads

My brother in law just got out of the hospital today.
He has been in for three weeks for stem cell replacement.
I believe this was the final step in a treatment thats been going on since Aug.

Thoughts and prayers to your BIL. How is he doing?

I sat down next to a lady at my treatment today who has stage 4 colon cancer. I felt so bad for her. Makes my deal seem so minor.

You're gonna be fine. Don't worry

That really has to be tough.
Makes our every day " what's for dinner, how's my commute gonna be tonight" so insignificant.
Best of luck to you, and Grads of course. :)

Sounded good the other day when I talked to him. I know he was going crazy in the hospital.
He's only 52 and was diagnosed 5 years ago with a rare case of mantle cell lymphoma.
Thank you Eli, I don't usually post this kind of stuff up.

Thank you for sharing. I have a few friends fighting lymphoma. A rare type with no cure, but goes dormant. Are you guys in touch with the Leukemia Lymphoma Society? I did a fund raiser for them. Bike rode 100 miles. It's a great organization and a great cause!

Good luck GRADS, I will be thinking of you and having positive thoughts for you! Nick goes through the same thing every time he has a follow up.
