In January my brother Robert was diagnosed with Burkett's Lymphoma, which includes luekemia. Robert turns 30 in sept. Well, it's in his leg, spine and brain. He was doing really well with chemo, and the cancer in his brain was gone. He then went to the hospital for chemo and he pneumonia as well. Not sure what happened but his blood pressure totally dropped and his heart stopped. He was given CPR and lived again. He then was put on life support. I'm happy to report that he is now off a breathing tube after 1 1/2 weeks, talking, and will be out of ICU by tomorrow. So my family and I are Mormon and we prayed our guts out. The Dr.'s gave Robert a 2% chance of survival and said it would be a miracle if he got through this. The Dr.'s underestimated our faith!

Hope your brother is still doing well. We just found out our friend, who is 7 has Burkett's. He was diagnosed within the first month, so we are hoping for the best.
