Been a while since I have blogged. Looks like the last time was after my treatment in 2019 which was my second go-around with Non-Hodgkins B cell follicular lymphoma. Since that time it looked like I was headed for treatment in 2022 and a stem cell transplant due to the early reoccurrence. However after much prayer and church fasting subsequent testing showed that the cancer had shrunk and that they would continue to monitor me versus treat me. In Spring of 2024 I started to show signs again of this ugly disease. I was monitored over the summer and in the fall was told I should get the process started for car t which is a newer type of treatment. That plan was derailed when what was thought to be a reoccurrence of my slow growing cancer had actually changed into a more aggressive type. Treatment was required right away and I began on November 21st. At the time of this writing I have just finished my fifth round of six. This regime has been much tougher with the side effects being more and me fighting this as a 54 year old versus the first time around at 40. Those are the details but I want to focus on God's goodness. We can see that as he orchestrates different things in our lives to make this journey easier.
