Just a quick note to those who know that I have been dealing with Hodgkins Lymphoma since January that I got a clean bill of health from the doctor today. I wish to thank everyone for their prayers and concern and please keep all those who are sick in your prayers. No more chemo every two weeks after five months of it. Wow, I almost still can't believe it. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Tom

Tom,

What wonderful news! We need more good news stories like this to brighten our lives. I have never had the chance to meet you and I hope now that I can very shortly. Glad the chemo routine is over and you can look forward to brighter things than doctor visits. Thanks so much for sharing and keep in touch.

Tom,

I'm really happy for you and your family. It is nice to hear about a success in treating cancer. This disease does not only affect the person, but everyone around him or her.

And, I know that chemo can be so difficult to endure, but you and your family hung in there and made it.

Congratulations on your clean bill of health!
