I haven't written about this yet, but I think that a lot of you know that my friend Mandy's husband was recently diagnosed with Follicular Lymphoma, stage 4. They are beginning treatment today and would welcome your prayers. Dave is participating in a clinical trial at the James Cancer Hospital in Columbus. Their hope is that this trial will put Dave into remission for a period of time and they can decide between treatment options for him from there. His type of cancer is not curable, but is treatable.
They are both phenomenal people with a very positive attitude, but they are human. We would be crazy to think that this isn't the most devastating news to hear. Dave is 36 and has an extensive family history with this specific type of Lymphoma.
Dave and Mandy are also expecting their first son, Marshall in September. Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair.
They have a blog that we have linked to ours - Our Year of Miracles - they update it frequently, so if you'd like to take a look it's always there.
Thanks for your prayers!
