My brother had an aggressive lymphoma in 1997. Had chemo and 22 great years. Came back in spring 2019. He had an autologous stem cell transplant June 2019 and has been doing great since then, although the procedure and recovery were arduous. Had blood work and a CT scan in Dec., no evidence of disease.
