Patrick’s Story

Site created on February 26, 2018

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.


In October, Dad was diagnosed with high grade B-cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. We started treatment with a great team at Fairfax INOVA. Progress looked promising initially, but unfortunately after 5 rounds of chemotherapy, the cancer had spread and become more invasive. The disease and the chemo also caused horrendous side effects so on February 19th we made the decision to come home.
