Thinking of Indianapolis Colts Head Coach Chuck Pagano, wife Tina, and family tonight. He was diagnosed with AML last week and is having induction chemotherapy...same chemo drugs as Ron had in April 2010 after his diagnosis. Coach Pagano has a different subtype M3, Ron M4, but both are AML which is bone marrow cancer. Can't help but re-live what a shock it was to hear the word leukemia and clearly remember asking, "You mean he's going to have to spend the night in the hospital?" (in Coldwater, MI) Then the next day Ron was taken by ambulance to U of M, and we were told that his first hospitalization for induction chemotherapy would be a month long. My head was reeling with questions, emotions, and an overload of information about AML.
In some ways, it seems like yesterday when our world turned on its axis, but it was exactly 2 and 1/2 years ago today. In some ways, it seems like a lifetime ago.
