Sounds like lymphoma? My dad lived on that floor of the U of M hospital for a couple years when i was in high school. Lymphoma is generally pretty treatable...even curable. Those people looked like they were always in better shape than the leukemia people lol.

Let me know if you end up in Ann Arbor. I can help Pat find some fun stuff to do off-campus. Those are my stomping grounds. I sent her a friend request on facebook. You're in my prayers. We'll all be thinking of you. Kick cancer's ass!
