Rock Chalk

This has to be hard for DJ and the team. I am currently in med school. We just had a test over all of the lymphomas. He has been diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma which has a very good prognosis. If caught early, which it sounds like it has, it has over a 90% cure rate. Our thoughts and prayers go out to DJ. Let’s win one for DJ this weekend.

That was my first question.

Hodgkin’s or not. Hodginks is good news if you can call it that…

Me no likey Clint Bowen.

Wish him well

I know someone who had Hodgkins, went through treatment(which is no cakewalk) and now is free of it. I’ll pray for the same result for Marshall.

Insanity is just a state of mind.

My dad lived through it

it wrecked him pretty good though. 15 years later and he’s still recovering from chemo. Awful stuff. It’s basically the same chemical used in Agent Orange. He has veins in his arms that have permanently rotted away.

Me no likey Clint Bowen.

Fight the good fight DJ.
