Thanks for your all kind words and heart felt comments. At first I was a little hesitate to bring up the subject since it's sensitive and sometimes can hit a personal note for so many people within the TS community. But when I gave it some thought I wanted to share a good news story regarding Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. In addition, I wanted to stress to all that this is a very curable cancer. As with all cancer, early detection is the key to a positive outcome. For me it was the presence of what appeared to be swollen glands under my chin. I was lucky in that it showed up there and I immediately went to my doctor to have it checked out. Within 3 weeks I began an aggressive Chemo Treatment called RCHOP... an acronym for the series of intravenous drugs you are given every 3 weeks over the course of 6 hours at an infusion center. In my case it was at Stanford University.

So again thank you for allowing me to share my life’s most personal challenge and joyful outcome.

BTW we ended up drinking two bottles that night. It was as smooth, fruity and well balanced as has long been advertised in various articles over the years. If you ever have chance to get your hands on a bottle or two I believe you will thoroughly enjoy it. However from my personnel experience you will find that one bottle won’t be enough if are sharing. You’ll want and desire a second bottle.

Cheers !!!!!!!!!!!

My mother had the same form of cancer, and she was also one of the lucky ones like yourself to catch it soon enough to treat it. She has been in remission for 20+ years. Congrats on your good health.
