At the office where Mike had his chemo treatments, everyone gets to ring the bell once they are done with the treatments.

The Fight Of His Life
"The irony was, the worse I felt, the better I got. That was chemo for you."

Just another day at chemo
- Mike
- Mike Mendonca was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2007. He had surgery to remove the tumor and then radiation. In April 2008 he was diagnosed with cancer again. It traveled through his blood and landed in his spinal cord where it grew and grew until it fractured one of his vertabrae. He was in extreme pain and immediately underwent radiation to shrink the tumor to relieve the pressure in his back and chest. He is currently undergoing 4 rounds of chemotherapy. He has been very sick and has lost weight and ALL of his hair. He is trying to be strong and fight this horrible disease. He has a lot to live for. He is the father of 4 kids who are all married. He has 6 grandchildren that bring him great joy. He has a loving wife, who cares for him right now, and 3 step- children. Your thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated.

I just stumbled upon your blog when a did a cancer search. My aunt was just diagnosed with cancer of the spine. It was finally discovered when, after almost of year of back pain, she finally could not take the pain any more.
You will be in my prayers...
