Burkitt Lymphoma

Was not sure what to put in subject line but just wanted to inform all of you.

We received some bad news last Friday. We had a nephew that was away in school and he noticed a lump starting to form under his right armpit back in October. They did a biopsy in November on it and it came back positive for Burkitt Lymphoma. He just turn 17 on the 27th. We are not sure what stage he is at but once they do find out they will be starting his treatments this week.

If you or anyone else notices any lumps forming have them checked out sooner then later.

Take Care
