I'm currently living with Hodgkins Lymphoma. One of my treatments included a tandem auto stem cell transplant. I described the process of how this works to my buddy Sean and he said "sounds like they're doing a Control Alt Delete on you". I thought it was as good a description as any. That seems like a long time ago but the name has stuck. I've basically had to start my life over, so please feel free to join me!

Fight2Win.org
I've been asked a few different times lately how someone would go about donating to Hodgkins research and decided to add a link to my "Cancer Resources" area down to the right. Please click on the "Donate to Hodgkins" link and it will take you to the Fight2Win.org website where you can donate.
The late Alese Coco and her family started the charity a few years back as there really aren't many resources being allocated for Hodgkins research due to the rarity of the disease compared to other malignancies. Even though it's the #1 cancer for young adults like myself, only 2000 people per year get diagnosed. 95% of the donation will go directly to research so you know your money is not being wasted.
Thanks in advance for the consideration and please spread the word :)
