Hi, Lauren,<BR /><BR />Know you are blanketed in prayers and love from your Federation family.<BR />Judy<BR /><BR /><BR />----- Original Message -----<BR />From: lauren merryfield via BlindTlk <blindtlk@nfbnet.org><BR />To: blindtlk@nfbnet.org <blindtlk@nfbnet.org><BR />Date: Saturday, April 24, 2021 04:01 PM<BR />Subject: [BlindTlk] Sad news from my heart and soul<BR /><BR />Hi, NFB talk family.<BR />I have known many of you for a long time (I'm not saying, hahaha) and some I have just recently "met" over this list.<BR /><BR />Recently, I went in for a biopsy of a very large lymph node. It came back with my dr. informing me that I have high-grade b-cell lymphoma.<BR /><BR />By the time they found it (On a "meow" scan), it had spread throughout my body and into my bloodstream. My heart and kidneys are not strong enough to handle the onslaught of chemo. So I have opted for palliative care and/or hospice.<BR /><BR />I am expected to be around raising a ruckus for several months.<BR /><BR />So now you have heard it from the horse's mouth. Wait a minute! I'm not a horse. Well, from the cat's mouth PURRhaps.<BR /><BR />I have appreciated the info we have exchanged with each other in a generally courteous manner, which educates (and sometimes entertains) all of us.<BR />Thank you for that!<BR />Blessings,<BR />Love,<BR />Lauren Merryfield❤<BR />=^..^=<BR />(cat)<BR />_______________________________________________<BR />BlindTlk mailing list<BR />BlindTlk@nfbnet.org<BR />http://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/blindtlk_nfbnet.org<BR />To unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for BlindTlk:<BR />http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/blindtlk_nfbnet.org/sonshines59%40gmail.com
