Diffuse large b cell lymphoma
is the official diagnosis. Its not the best news, but better than the original thought of Burkitt Lymphoma. He'll start chemo early next week. Unrelated, but we were going to have our family pics done in late jan/early feb, but now i'm trying to find a photog to do them in the next 2-3 weeks since dh doesn't want the pics done after he loses his hair. Wish me luck!!

My little nuggets
Best of luck to you all!
Good luck and I hope his treatment goes smoothly!
In the past, I've used Vida Carson for my photos. She's very reasonably priced and has worked with me before on short notice. You can tell her that I referred you to her.
Best wished for a speedy recovery. I hate this for you guys and hope that it is over fast and as easily as possible.
Hopefully LD or Kell will chime in- maybe the girl they use can do the photos more quickly. Their pics always look great.
As for photos, have you tried Caitlin Domanico? She is a friend of mine from childhood, and a lot of Knotties/Nesties have used her too (she used to be a Knottie). I know she would work with you if her schedule has an opening. If you don't know of her already, you can find her through my facebook.
I don't have any photo recs, but what about the newer nestie that posted on the page earlier this week looking for models to build her portfolio? That may be an option, too! Just scroll down.
T, I am thinking of you all, still. I know this will be a challenging time for you and your family.
We've used Nina Price twice for Z's photos (cake smash, see my FB and also holiday). She is really quick to respond, give her a call. Tell her I sent ya.
I've been thinking about you and your family T. While it makes it more real, it's good to have a diagnosis and a treatment plan. I'm so sorry, and I'll keep you guys in my prayers.
I know you have good photographer recommendations already, another to check out your way is Gail Anne Photography. I love her work.

I'm sure he'll look dashing without hair too.
You will heal as a family at least you are now on the path to recovery.
Most photographer's take a break this time of you, BUT if you call/contact and say you only want the pics taken (because of said situation) and you aren't in a hurry to have them edited/to you before the holidays and that you can wait a few weeks someone may have the time to shoot.
And I'm sorry about the dx. Good luck in his treatment.
oh T I'm thinking of you guys. My SIL (who you knew about) had Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. I'm not sure if it's the same or similar. It was a long road for her but she has been cancer free for a little over a year now. I hope and pray for the same outcome for Mr. T-Money as well.
I know the girls have already said it but we really are here for you if you need us. If you guys decide to go with FCCC, I wouldn't mind driving over to my mom's house in Fox Chase and watching T for you if you wanted to go to the hosp with your husband for treatments. I really wouldn't mind doing that at all.
All of your outpouring of thoughts and generosity is overwhelming and appreciated more than you know, so thank you all again.
