I just realized my 7th anniversary of being diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma, has come and gone with barely a notice. And with the exception of the very recent passing of Dan Seals, of England Dan and John Ford Cooley fame, I might not even have thought of it at all.
Dan Seals was only 61 years old (a mere 4-1/2 months older than me), and he died of Mantle Cell Lymphoma, after receiving a [reportedly] experimental stem cell transplant, at the NIH in Bethesda, MD. He was diagnosed in August 2007.
It’s just serves as a stark reminder of how cruel life can be sometimes, and how fortunate I have been these past 7 years.
