Hey sports fans!
Everything here has been going great.
THEIR SENDING ME HOME TOMORROW!!
(knock on wood)
Today they've disconnected me from everything so I'm a free man!
I still don't have much of an appetite, and so I've been dropping weight. Doctor wants me to drink 3 liters of anything with substance (read: electrolytes) to try to offset the not eating.
Mom is bring me a few chicken cutlets from home today, maybe that will peek my interest!
Other then that, I've been feeling good! just generally tired. That's a combination of everything going on plus the not eating, but with time everything will return! Energy and Appetite.
It's funny, I've been here since March 27th. Looking back, that time has flew by! But knowing I'm going home tomorrow is making this weekend take forever! I'm so close!!!!
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.

Before we get started
I just want everyone to keep in mind a few things as you read these posts...
I Am Faithful
While some may see this as a life altering event, I do not.
I firmly believe that this is simply a struggle that has been placed in my life that I must endure.
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.
In Conclusion
I don't want anyone to be worried or concerned for me.
I'm not worried, heck the doctor's aren't even worried! Therefore you shouldn't be either.
The last thing I want to do is scare anyone with my condition.
I'm hoping that through this blog I can put everyone's minds at ease as my treatment continues.
