This blog documents my treatment as I try to balance life and school while being diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. The purpose of this blog is to keep my family and friends updated as I undergo treatment for this disease.
Since Transplant |
When something like this happens, you really tend to question how much you trust God in your own life. As I sat in bed the first night after being diagnosed I said to myself, "Self, you have cancer. YOU have CANCER!! Shouldn't that scare you?" And I searched my heart. I found no fear, I found no worries, and I found no concerns. Cancer is big, but it is no match for God.
I am able to continue in high spirits because deep in my heart I know that God will provide and he will bring me through. He has already blessed me with the greatest care imaginable combined with the family and friends to support me as I continue on this journey.

HI Nick,
Just read your blog and I wanted to help.
Maybe you can mention this info to your MDs. I had heard that Vitamin C in high doses given intravenously was helpful.
Also found these natural ways to heal mouth ulcers on a question and answer site.
"The doctor presribed Liquid Aloe Vera and that has been really helping her. She takes 1 oz at a time and you are allowed up to 6 oz. a day.
She also gargles with baking soda and water and that has helped her. It increases the PH levels in the mouth".
I don't know what you're MDs will think about this, but sometimes it's worth a try to bring up ideas that are simple.
Did you ever hear of Occam's razor? Look it up!
I'm praying for you and I KNOW that you're going to be fine.
gimme a W! u got yo W! u got yo W!
gimme a B! u got yo B! u got yo B!
gimme a C! u got to C! u got yo C!
what does it spell? WBC!
they're coming... i can feel it, bc im thinking about them, and believe it or not, when i think, wonderful things actually can happen... (ie: i stop being as clumsy as tina and actually get things done)
ps- kate is a doll. shes a keeper!
heehee love you
OMG NICOLAS. alison is so jealous of my adventures in the kitchen....she calls me clumsy but she really wants to be like me. basically she idolizes me (but im sure you know that already).
p.s. i have a good feeling superman will be returning very very soon :)
Hey Nick, Its Mike B again.
I know your WBC will come back.
They're just off regrouping or maybe calling in some kinda special forces group...like a white blood cell megazord.
Hi Nick, when those mouth sores are gone I predict a lifetime supply of chocolate covered pretzels being sent to your house...I'm praying for that count to go sky high and it will !! love you
hey Nick,
I am praying for you everyday, I picture it like that disney movie that the white blood cells are little muscle men. They are coming, they just have to pump it up!Love You!! Let's Go WBC!!
Jill
the knight is on "her" way :o)
We are hoping and hoping and hoping that WBC count goes up Nick!!! We love you and are thinking of you. Just let me know if you more Oreo's and Choc. Chip cookies and you'll get them!!
Love you!!
Hey Nick!!! I just wanted to let you know, my mom said her doctors recommended to gargle with Maalox ... sounds weird, i know .. but she said u should gargle with it, not swallow --- maybe u can ask ur doctors if that's a good idea? And she says keep hydrated as much as u can cuz u don't want a dry mouth to deteriorate ur enamel on ur teeth. I hope this helps. Be good superman!!! xoxox

Hey Nicky!
I haven't talked to you in a few days and I was just checking in on you. You must have pulled yourself off the grid to help with the WBC!
Talk to you soon,
