Happy 2nd cancerversary to me, and congratulations to Patrick
Today marks two years since I went to the hospital suffering from complete short-term memory loss, only to find out that it was caused by Hodgkin’s lymphoma. I covered all the fun in a post last year.
I would simply like to say thank you again to all friends and family who helped during the first rather helpless weeks and the six months of chemo that followed. But especially, on this particular July 16th, I offer a special thanks to Patrick Winter, a good friend since just before seventh grade, who, despite having just moved to a new city, Chicago, this week two years ago, turned around and came to my hospital in Boston. It’s also when he mentioned that the friend he was staying with in Boston had a sister in Chicago he liked. So my thanks and congratulations to Patrick, for tonight I get to lose some short-term memory again during Patrick’s “menfolk party” ahead of his wedding in two days to that friend’s sister, the lovely Rachel. Way to go , Paddy!
