My Diagnosis

This is probably going to come as a surprise to most of you, but 6 months ago I was diagnosed with testicular cancer and had surgery to remove the tumor. I was able to avoid chemo but have been watching everything closely since then. I just found out that the cancer has spread to a lymph node and I'll have to have another surgery to remove it, most likely followed by a few months of chemotherapy. The cure rate is nearly 100%, but I'll probably have to take next semester off from law school due to the chemo. I feel it's best to make everything public based a few things I learned during my last experience. I made it through last time and I'll make it again, just gotta take things one day at a time and finish this year strong.
