<div>Hello. I’m Tim, and <strong>I have stage 4 Follicular Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma</strong>.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Out of nowhere, I had major trouble walking, as well as a pins and needles sensation from my torso down to my toes. After an MRI, we discovered I had a tumor on my spine and lymphoma in a few of my lymph nodes.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I received an emergency surgery to remove the <strong>tumor all along the thoracic portion of my spine—a flurry of activity. </strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Next came physical rehabilitation to learn how to walk again: a slow and arduous, painful process. After being in the rehab center, I started physical therapy as an outpatient twice a week. My ability to walk is much better, but still a work in progress.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>After my incision healed: chemotherapy</strong>, and it was a rough one. They decided to Molly wallop my cancer with a pretty strong treatment, called R-CHOP. That took a lot out of me, and I still feel like my energy levels and brain fog have not righted themselves yet.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The hard part of my journey may be over, but <strong>I'm still attempting to get caught up with bills—medical and general, get my home office set up so I can work, and general life expenses. I have insurance, but it doesn’t pay for everything. Any help you can provide will be appreciated. </strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Oh, I’m also writing a book about my experience as well. It would be great to have time to do that without some of the added stressors bogging me down.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>The economy is pretty rough out there, as is the job market. My energy levels and difficulty walking and carrying things doesn’t make it any easier.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I delayed making this as long as I could, but have come to the realization I could use some help. And some of you would rather not buy things off the Amazon Wish list, which I understand.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you for considering. Please only donate if it is painless to you.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Also please share, whether you can donate or not!

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Again, thanks.

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>When you donate, I will write you a haiku with your choice of topic.
