This is my blog about my medical journey through Lymphoma. I was diagnosed April 11, 2006. Currently, I am in remission with a high chance of cure. It was non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, specifically Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma. The tumors ended up being in my hip, my sternum and my backbone. I have left the blog up for anyone to read, and I also use it to remember all I went through. Because of all the drugs and stress, some of it is foggy, so it is fun to go back and see what I went through!

Broken Chair

I had a portable folding rocking chair. It is now broken. I was sitting on it playing xbox 360 and I leaned my fat self to the side and a couple tiny pieces broke off and shot across the room. I duct-taped it back together but now it does not fold and so it is no longer portable. It is just a matter of time before my 20 lbs of extra mayo rip through the sinews of the tape and I fall again and my brother points and laughs. That is the first chair I have broken just from sitting in it.

This last weekend I had some friends over and I was photographed doing the 'moose', that is where you lift up your shirt and put your hands up like horns on the upper sides of your chest so that your belly-button is the moose nostril and then you puff out your belly. My moose had a very big nose.

We need the picture of The Moose, dude.

I'm going to bed laughing right now...you're absolutely crazy funny, which seems to be a strength that gets folks through the Big C.

Aloha (yes, we're off on Tuesday!),

Oh yeah, I have a few folding, portable type chairs you can have, once your 20lbs of extra mayo finally rip through your Mcgyver fix
