Hey fellas. I know most of you don't care that I haven't posted lately...

But if I could ask you one thing is to pray for my big sister. She was recently diagnosed with lymphoma and just started her chemo treatments tonight. Her cancer is the most common form of lymphoma and we are all extremely positive that she will kick this disease's ass. The doctors as well as our family our extremely optimistic that she will win this battle, the doctors said that the first round of chemo will nuke about 70% of the disease. We are now starting the 2/3 of this battle and my entire family cannot wait to celebrate the day she is 100% cancer free.

On a side note she is a graduate of Thee Ohio State University so that is just more good news for her as she starts this battle. My brother in law told me that he was on cloud 9 on January 1 when Ohio State beat Alabama and the next day he found out that the love of his life was diagnosed with cancer. It really puts things in perspective. Just know that there are way more important things in life than some silly game we all love. I will keep you all informed of her progress as I find out more but wanted to let you all know this even though the majority of you think I'm a heartless prick.

She will kick cancer's pansy ass like my mom just did. Prayers, my man.

 

[HammerDown]

We're all on your side, man. Here's hoping that your celebration will be sooner than later!

 

[BeaverShaver]

my prayers are with you and your family. good luck and keep your head up. stay connected to the boards, it helps to communicate.

She will kick cancer's pansy ass like my mom just did. Prayers, my man.

I am confident she will too and I'm great up for survivors like your mom that have the courage she had to fight this awful disease. My sister is a strong woman just like your mother!

 

[Sgt Brutus]

Prayers man, wish her the best of luck

I appreciate all the well wishes. I never in a million years thought that something like this would happen to my family but I can tell you one thing, I never thought that a tight knit family like mine would ever be as tight knit as they are now. My sis had a breakdown today as she was in pre op with my mom because reality set in. We have a long road ahead of us these next 6 months during her treatment and the support we have received from doctors, friends and family has been amazing. I gotta go to bed and pack up to go see her this weekend. It will be exciting to see her feeling better once the first treatment relieves some pressure on her vital organs. The best news is that the biopsy found no cancer in her organs and the type of cancer she has, although it is very aggressive, is destroyed twice as fast by the chemo treatments. Good night and keep her in your thoughts and prayers as she starts to kick some ass!!!

There are no pricks in here, just good people who act pricklee at times.

Sorry to hear, but glad you're all staying positive. Will be thinking about your folks.

Sports can always take a backseat at times like this.

Prayers here as well. My mom has non-Hodgkin's lymphoma but fortunately it's been in remission for years. Hope for the same or better for your sister.
