he's a young man and hence the cure rate is very high. all treatment options remain open at that age including bone marrow transplant. odds are very much in his favor

Oh no, poor guy. I hope he beats it. That is a terrible thing for any person to ever go through.

I havent read the article but will he continue to play. My dad is a huge Vikings fan and I enjoyed watching him play.

Yes, my cousin has had leukemia for about 25 years and is doing well(diagnosed around age 25-30). It is very treatable for the most part these days.

It IS sad... YES.

But, cancer used to be a very rare thing in the past.

Now, and into the future... 1 in 3 will have it.

Scary thoughts...

It didn't have to be this way.

I didn't mean Leukemia exclusively... I meant cancer in general.
