<div>This is Neil’s  story….
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The last few weeks have been insane.
</div>
<div>Thanks to everyone who has been checking up on us. I appreciate you all so much.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have cancer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Some people may know bits and pieces of what is going on but here is a list of how my cancer fight began..
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since Labor Day life has changed abruptly for Hannah &amp; I...
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It started as a rush to the emergency room at 2am on Labor day..
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Followed by another ER visit at 10am on Tuesday 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Followed by a specialist appointment on Thursday 9/8; where we found out I'd need surgery to remove cancer. No worries though 95% of testicular cancer is cured with removal of the cancer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I had this surgery on Wednesday 9/14
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Then on Wednesday 9/21 I had a follow up with the results from pathology. Here we found out I do not have the generic 95% curable cancer. Instead we found out I have pure cell testicular choriocarcinoma, which is very aggressive and comes with a 25% mortality rate after 3 years. We scheduled a bunch more tests and scans along with appointments at the cancer center. Before we left the clinic I had all of my labs completed.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Today I woke up thinking I'd just have my CT Scans done later. This is my new normal it seems; each day its supposed to be a test or appointment but then more bad news.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I just recieved results from my lab work on Wednesday. My cancer markers have elevated further since my surgery. They told me this means my cancer is spreading rapidly. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This was not the news we were hoping for.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> Here is to hoping the scans prove helpful in the next stage of this fight. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ps **in the voice of Matthew McConaughey**
</div>
<div>Do not go gently into that goodnight. Rage. Rage against the dying of the light.
</div>
