Well, I've been given a diagnosis of lymphoma based on what the doctors saw in my CAT scan. The exact nature (Hodgkin's versus non-Hodgkin's) will require a biopsy to determine. I only found out today, so I have no idea of how I'll be treated, how advanced it is, and what my ultimate fate might be. I'll know more tomorrow, after I see the oncologist in the afternoon.
What a spectacular turn of events.

Hey Bill, it's Justin, your nephew. I heard about the diagnosis from mom. Hard to describe how I feel, and I'm sure it's even worse for you, but I'm hoping for the best. I'm sure all will work out. Keep on keeping on. I don't want to get too much into cliches, but keep strong.
Love,
Justin
I still have a strong "This can't be happening to me" feeling, and it's a little overwhelming, but the more I find out... Well, I won't say that the more I find out the better it gets, but the less scary it gets. It's now officially less scary than open-heart surgery, but not by much.
I'm not much for cliches either, mostly because my cliches are never exactly appropriate. It's an ill wind that saves nine, after all.
But thanks for yoru concern!
