Long road of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Best wishes to him and all impacted by cancer.

Damn. Hopefully it was discovered early. Obviously he’s young and in great shape so he’s got that going for him. Best wishes, Oskar.

@psu00, how are you doing?

 

[Raffycorn]

Ewing’s Sarcoma seems to be a type of cancer that is much more difficult to deal with when you find it at Lindblom’s age versus, say, a child or teenager. Lindblom’s obviously in great physical condition, though, and he’s in great hands at Penn. But finding this particular disease in a 23 year old is not going to be an easy road.

@psu00, how are you doing?

Everything’s good. Thanks. I feel horrible for Lindblom with chemo and radiation therapy in the next few weeks which may be followed by surgery or possible amputation depending on his situation (I haven’t heard which bone it was found in). Such a bad situation for him.

He's not totally out of the woods yet BUT he is an inspiration for sure.

I think it is 5years and he can be pronounced cancer free, yes?

Great news to hear!
