Hey, Jon's friend Dave has a version of lymphoma (the worse type) and as a result, Jon is extremely up on the aspects of medicine surrounding it as well as explaining it all to layperson family members trying to wrap their heads around it all. Give a call if you want to have dinner over or something and chat with him. Incidentally, Dave's bone marrow transplants went surprisingly well and he's doing far better than "they" expected, so I have to say, no matter how bad it looks there are treatments and considerable hope. Best luck, -K.
