Hang in there Matt . It’s not a death sentence like it used to be . They have numerous treatments which are extremely effective . Be strong brother .

I had Lymphoma Hodgkins Nodular Sclerosis Stage 2a, April 2009. Did the scans, the biopsy, the chemo, the radio, CT and Pet scans… and now it’s gone completely! I had faith in myself! Didn’t need no God!

i think GOD is giving you time for you to repent. because you are “free” of cancer now, it doesn’t mean it cant come back in the future ( i hope never in your case or any case). you were free of cancer before and it came out of the blue, anyway. take care

I am glad you are a cancer survivor. Everyone responds to treatment differently; for many chemo does not work at all for others lymphoma keeps returning and eventually takes their life. I had a unique experience with chemo, it nearly destroyed my lungs. I am thankful to God for the recovery.

I also dealt with my brothers death from cancer the same time I had mine. With or without acknowledging Jesus people survive many various trials, and with or without Jesus people loose battles in life – but it is great to know He is with you when life doesnt seem to make sense.

I underwent 12 treatments of ABVD chemotherapy and had no radiation treatments afterwards .
tedblair1101 on March 29, 2010 at 3:02 am
@prsjoe – No radiation for me either…

@mihasnoopy – Do whatever it takes. You can beat it and live a long full life. On the other side of the battle you will be a stronger person.
tedblair1101 on March 29, 2010 at 3:04 am
@prsjoe – That is right on!
tedblair1101 on March 29, 2010 at 3:05 am

@ThaShizzProductions – How are you?
Robersim on April 1, 2010 at 3:35 am
Hi Ted, I noticed how you said that chemo nearly destroyed your lungs, did they give you bleomycin? I am
Robersim on April 1, 2010 at 3:37 am
Currently undergoing chemo for stage III HL and your videos were very encouraging.
tedblair1101 on April 1, 2010 at 2:02 pm
@Robersim – Hang in there – I am now seven months in remission. My last Chemo was the end of last Aug. I feel great.

tedblair1101 on April 1, 2010 at 2:06 pm
@Robersim – That was the one. It took several treatments until it was noticeable. It was quickly removed from the treatment and I was put on meds to help my lungs. I was on ABVD. Video 12 tells that part of the story. I am now completely recovered

Hi,
I’m from New Zealand. My mum has been in hospital since Feb 2010 going through chemo treatment for non hodgkins lymphoma. I have just began to watch your videos and I thank you for sharing your journey. God bless you and your family.
