Here we go.

Since my preliminary diagnosis of lymphoma last week, I've been having more fun than I can stand. After a PET scan and biopsy, I've found out that in fact, I do have Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, just still a little confused about the specifics of it. I have to do another biopsy of an entire lymph node to find out more. My body lit up all over my PET scan with lots of cancer -kinda like a Jewish Christmas tree. Chemo will start soon - I guess I could have skipped going to Weight Watchers. Anyway, thanks everyone for caring and I'll try to keep everyone updated here. Check back for more later.

Love you all.

    Don't know If I am able to express in my poor English how shock I was after receive the message that you have Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
    Everything become so irrelevant now, put all your strength in getting better!
    I know you are a strong women and that you will go for it.
    I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and put my hope in God that he helps you through this.
