I have just begun my battle. I was diagnosed on 4/9/12, and have my first PET scan on Monday, 4/23. I have to admit, I'm not looking forward to my bone marrow test on the 26th, but I'm looking forward to getting this done so that I can be well again. I know this will be a hard road, but I am confident that God will give me complete healing in the end. :-) Thank you for the encouraging story. I have just begun my battle.

I will be thinking about you on Friday. The treatment really wasn't bad-I just had to take it easy for 2 days after treatment, I slept a lot! Please keep me posted on your progress. Surround yourself with positive people! I hope other people's replies on this blog will help you too. :) It sure helps to talk to people that have gone through the same thing. I am always here and my email is debbie@happyfirst.com. Hi John, so glad you wrote in. I will be thinking about you on Friday.

I have stage IIA Hodgkin's and have my first chemo (ABVD) on Friday. Port is being installed tomorrow. I'm 30 years old and was just trying to start a family with my wife of almost 3 years. I'm a wreck emotionally when I'm alone. I know that most people are cured and I'm so thankful for that! I'm really nervous to start chemo, but also so ready. The way I'm looking at it is I can't get better until they pump me full of that good ABVD so let's get it started and get cured! It was very encouraging to hear you say that treatment wasn't that bad. I've been so nervous about it as if I would turn into a zombie after they give it to me! lol God Bless you and thank you for your story. It has given me a bit of courage going into chemo.

And when one wears it you have to opportunity to open up such a big field of conversation to help others. I agree totally with what you said about we all have the power to change our future based on our choices. And I know things happen in life, but it is the attitude we have and how we handle circumstances that creates our destiny. There are so many people out there struggling and they feel hopeless. This shirt is such a great inspiration and I feel that it can help change the thoughts of people's day and guide them to a better path. Just by wearing this I guarantee you will make a difference. It's a great positive contagious outlook on life that you can pass on to others continuously. Blessings ~ Pam Gordineer This shirt is such a great positive statement.

I particularly loved the quote “Take a small step in the direction of a dream and watch the synchronous doors flying open”. Turn Tulsa Pink was a dream... and now it's flying HIGH! Loved my time with you and LOVE my Super Chick Tee! You are a force to be reckoned with - my kind of girlfriend for sure! Great message Debbie!
