Prospects for 2008

2008 is here and I have some health issues to take care of. I have been going back and forth to the Mayo Clinic in Arizona since October. I have had a lot of tests done and they finally came up with a diagnosis in December. I have what is known as MALToma or MALT lymphoma, a non-hodgkins lymphoma in the stomach. That was quite a shock to hear! No one in my family has ever had cancer and I wasn't prepared. So, I begin chemotherapy on January 14th. I will hopefully be through with chemo by the beginning of May. After that, I hope I can begin to put on weight again and feel like eating again.
