One of our co-workers, Rhonda Kittle at First Federal/Mt. Pleasant, has been diagnosed with Follicular Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is
treatable, manageable, but not curable. The doctor says people can live long
happy lives.
In January, she had been sick and thought she might have pneumonia. Doc sent her for an x-ray and did not like the results, so then they sent her for a cat scan that showed some spots. Finally, preformed a pet scan and 2 biopsies. The first biopsy was in a lymph node under her arm and the second was to pull bone marrow. With the results of the biopsies, they have listed her in Stage 4. They put a PICC line in Friday and she's supposed to start her first round of chemo today. She will do 2 days of treatments every 28 days for 4-6 months.
Rhonda is a red-headed ball of energy, she's loud and she is a PRANKSTER! We love her and pray God's healing for her!
