 Topic: Lymphoma Diagnosis
Posted: 10 Nov 2018 at 9:07pm |
|
I don't know how many of you remember me, but I was very active on here a few years ago. I still remember you as being a great bunch of guys. My life has changed so I am no longer with the D-17 I had. Just wanted to let you know that last week I was diagnosed with Lymphoma cancer. I had my my first Chemo treatment earlier this week and things are going OK so far. As the doctor said if you are going to get something bad this is the best one to get as it is treatable and curable. I spent 13 days in the hospitals in Rochester MN and I am now back home. I have to go into Fairmont MN twice a week for blood tests and every three weeks back to Rochester for Chemo. It will be a long road, but I know that with the Lord's help I am going to beat this.

I am still confident of this;
I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Ps 27

Sorry to read of your plight, Neal. I'm sure the Doc knows what he's talking about, still, it's a long row to hoe when you get a diagnosis like you did. Please keep it touch, we still talk to people who no longer own an AC!

Prayer also, there are different kinds of lymphoma, I had CLL nine years ago, six months of chemo and good every year checkup since. My doctor said the same, if you have to have it this is the best one. We met on one of the tractor drives in the last 14 years. Good luck.

I would say there is a good chance our paths have crossed. I was born and raised on a farm near Truman and graduated from Truman HS. I then moved to Fairmont and worked for Fairmont Railway Motors for several years. In 1989 I became General Manager of Ag Industrial Inc. for many years. Two years ago my wife and I built a new home in the country near Truman.

Prayer for you Neal. My wife has went through 6 months of chemo the first 12 weeks every 3 weeks and the second 12 weeks one every week and then 4 weeks of radiation every day. Just watch your toes and feet for neuropathy, that's what she's fighting now.
