Cancer Schmancer...

Can't you just hear Grandma Fosh saying that with her New York accent that's still strong after 65 years in the south?

To bring you all up to speed, about a month ago, during a routine check-up, the doctor found two swollen lymph nodes that seemed suspicious. After several rounds of tests, lots of poking, prodding, x-raying and many doctors visits, it was confirmed that Grandma has Stage 4, Non-Hodgkin, B-Cell Lymphoma. This was as much of a shock to all of us as I am sure it is to you.

Grandma has made the decision to fight the fight and kick cancer's ass! She knows that it won't be an easy road, but as she told my brother last week, she wants to be here for our family and has work yet to be done!

Treatment will start Thursday, April 30...

As you can imagine, Grandma Fosh is facing this as she does most things, with a strong, winning spirit!

Follow Grandma Fosh on her journey - leave comments for her (she has already asked me to teach her how to blog) and cheer her on as she wins this fight!
