I am trying to be as positive and as educated as I can regarding this cancer. My entire family and doctors, are optimistic because they caught it in its very early stages...but this is the more aggressive of the two types of lymphoma. My family live elsewhere around the world, I am alone here and although I have many friends who support me with this issue, I want to be part of a support group that deals mainly with this. I feel the more I know how to handle my emotions and self, the better I can be there for my father and the rest of my family. Please help. I live in San Francisco.

Be there for him.

You will get through this together.

My four year old has non-hodgkins t-cell lymphoma. He has 7 mos. of chemo left. He is doing great, and his oncologist has told me from the beginning that this is cancer he can beat. Tell your father to stay strong, pray often, and check out the leukemia and lymphoma society they are a huge help and tell you all kinds of support, and survivor stories too. God bless and I hope for a speedy recovery.
