We received an email this week from Chris, one of our networking friends, and we wanted to share it with you on Cancer Info Today!

Please read on, and be an encouragement!

Chris Zavadowski here with a very personal update and request for my Dad…

You may have realized that I’ve been “quieter” on the blog and with my emails for much of this year. There’s a good reason for that. And it’s time let you know why…

http://www.mlmblog.com/personal-cancer-update.html

Toward the beginning of this year my Dad, Rich Zavadowski (one of my close friends), became very ill…so bad that he had to stay home from work.

After almost 3 months of testing, biopsies and baffling the doctors, we finally got word that he has a rare T-cell lymphoma (a highly aggressive stage IV cancer).

Because this is such a rare cancer, his best treatment option ended up being an experimental chemotherapy regimen at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). It’s a rougher chemo administered over 5 days each cycle…for 4 months.

Chances are you or a loved one have been touched by cancer, so you know first-hand how emotional and scary this journey is for an entire family.

That’s where YOU (and my personal favor) come in…

Years ago, when my Mom was fighting breast cancer, I asked for your help and support to send her kind words. With a great dose of humanity and understanding, my subscribers flooded her inbox with prayers, support and kind words that brought many smiles and helped her face the surgeries, treatment and the unknown.

Today, just like I did with her years ago, I’d like to ask you to leave a comment on my blog with an inspirational thought or ‘get well’ message for my Dad, Rich Zavadowski.

I’m going to print the comments off and put them in a “Happy Thoughts” binder I’ve created for him to chronicle the outpouring of support (and emails) we’ve been receiving from family and friends online. Your kind words posted here will go directly into this special book for him.

Check out the full story (and see a pic of us) here: http://www.mlmblog.com/personal-cancer-update.html

Thanks in advance for this personal favor and for your understanding…

Warmly,

Chris Zavadowski :)

P.S. - With cancer and the drugs he’s on, there are some very tense, depressing days, so when he’s a little down or needs a “pick me up” to get his head back in the right place, he can just turn to these comments page and see how much positive energy is coming his way.

It’ll help give him strength for when he beats this cancer and returns back to a normal life!
