Re: DAN BONGINO WILL BE UNDERGOING TREATMENT

[ Edited ]

So now he’s been diagnosed. I’m glad that it’s treatable but whatever must lie before him has to make him contemplate. I’m thinking of his wife now and how she must be doing. I just prayed for her. I need to look up her name....

 

 

Adding:  It’s Paula—just looked it up.

Hodgkins lymphoma has a curable rate of 85 to 95%. Non hodgkins lymphoma has a curable rate of 65%. He will probably have chemotherapy and radiation. I wish the best for him and his family. He appears to be a great person.

Re: DAN BONGINO WILL BE UNDERGOING TREATMENT

Quick latest update:  Dan has been fairly quiet about his ongoing cancer treatment, I believe, but today he revealed on Twitter that he had finished one round of chemo (I didn't know that), and apparently today he is starting his second round. 

 

He posted a picture of him receiving his treatment, syringe in place, joking that he was wearing his "chemo smirk".   At first I was a little taken aback, but then I thought:  good for him, good for him for 'normalizing' it, taking away some of the scary mystique.  He looked steely and determined, like so many cancer patients bravely doing what's necessary.

 

Prayers for swiftest treatment and full recovery.

Agreed, @qualitygal and @DREAMON -- and at least he seems to be pushing on with whatever amount of work he can handle, which is great!
