Kyle’s Story

Site created on June 3, 2020

6 years ago (January 2014) Kyle was diagnosed with CNS Large Cell A Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. At the time there were no masses or tumors, after 8 months of extreme harsh chemo and lots of prayer, the cancer was declared gone. 

April 29, 2020 Kyle fell extremely ill after vomiting for several days. That night a ct scan revealed several masses in his left brain. Several days of tests still could not reveal if the cancer had returned. A brain biopsy was conducted later that week. After being released from the hospital, there still were no results from any tests that can confirm the return of the cancer or explain what is there. 

On May 29, Kyle got worse and was admitted to Advent Health Hospital in Orlando, where the doctors did a scan of Kyle’s head and showed the masses have progressed and spread farther into his brain covering most of his left side. It has been said to be lymphoma based on recent scans, but without any  results from any labs it is not confirmed. The current doctor is treating it as the same type of cancer.

Kyle began his first regiment of chemo that week in hopes to stop the progression and start the fight! The title for this site is weird, however that is who Kyle is. Weird and ready for the second fight, where he believes you grow stronger through pain and become a stronger person. Stay tuned for updates and ways to help Kyle endure and fight the impossible and become a stronger person at the end of this fight.

Journal entry by Melissa Strongman —

Just a reminder that today (Sunday, Dec. 20) at 1 pm Pacific time is Kyle's service.

https://www.facebook.com/events/1020442035101409
 
At the memorial service, we will be celebrating communion. If you are watching the service and believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is your Savior, then please feel free to prepare beforehand bread and grape juice (or wine) as the elements of communion and join in taking of the bread and cup during the service. It is perfectly okay to not partake; Kyle would want and his family desires everyone who knows and loves Kyle to participate in his memorial service, regardless of their faith, creed, or religion.
