To all my friends. It has been a frustrating time for me since November as to what was happening and no answers medically. It all began with a swollen nose then progressed to a sore in and around my nose with the sores and swelling my face became very distorted and another lesion above my right angle. We were initially told it was a staff infection but the situation continued getting worse than possibly a fungal infection. I biopsy indicated it may be something more serious. We were able to see a hematology oncologist at the U T San Antonio Heath Science Center M.D. Anderson who after multiple tests diagnosed it as a very rare and serious non Hodgkin’s lymphoma. I just completed the first round of chemotherapy and will began round two next week. It will be a long next several months ahead. Your prayers will be greatly appreciated as I go through all the unknowns ahead of me.
