Five Years

December 10, 2004

Today I celebrate five years in remission from Hodgkins Lymphoma. Five years ago today, I had my 20th and last radiation treatment, after completing 6 months of chemo. I’ve waited a long time for this date to get here, and in a lot of ways it’s scary to finally achieve it. It’s been a long road, but I now have a lot to be thankful for. I’m especially thankful for the people in my life that helped and supported me before, during and since the cancer.

Today is a good day.

I’m so happy I ran across this photo. It was hanging in our downstairs bathroom at home for about 10 years and then moved to my fraternity apartment in college.

Comments turned off

December 7, 2004

I’ve had to turn off comments on all posts because the flood of spam was getting to be too much. About 6-10 a day, mostly advertising gambling or prescription drugs.

It’s really a shame… I guess I’ll re-enable them once I figure out an effective spam solution for the blog that doesn’t require me to manually approve tons of stuff.

Wired News: New Security Pain: Radioactivity

Reminds me of when I went through some of my testing. I had to have gallium injected and then let it run through me for 48 hours. The nurse explained: “You’re now radioactive and your pee is radioactive. And, stay away from small children and pets.”
