Hodgkins Lymphoma Round Two

We found out officially yesterday that my little sister Hanna has Hodgkin's. These past few weeks have been so surreal and like I'm repeating the past, oh wait I am! It's so random that the same cancer can hit my family twice. I just wish I could be there to help her and support her. This is when I really wish I lived by my family. I know that she will be ok at the end of this road, it's just not a very fun one to have to go through and go down. I know she'll be a trooper and I will say that it sure does make you rely on the lord more and is a testimony builder. I'm so thankful for the gospel and and for eternal families. I love you HANNA!

I am so sorry to hear that. I remember Hanna from when I went to Alaska to visit. I'll be thinking of her and you. Tell her I wish her the best. It's a cute picture of you two.

Hanna has a ton of support. This is all great. Thanks Ryan for your words of encouragement to Hanna yesterday on the phone. Your counsel has much more weight and meaning to her than anyone else's for obvious reasons. She has had friends, family, bishopric, stake president, hometeacher visists. She knows she is loved. Thanks everyone.

I am very sorry for you and your family. Nobody should have to go through something like this TWICE!!! Keep us updated on her progress.
