Joe Gibbs' Grandson Battling Leukemia

squrrelco3 · 01-09-2007, 09:53 PM

I just heard it on Tony Stewart's Sirius radio show.
I lost my uncle/best friend to that just last month, thoughts and prayers to Joe and his family. Treatments start tomorrow.

p.s. My apologies to the Moderators if I posted this in the wrong thread.

prayers to him and his family...anything about whether or not it was detected early?

SmootSmack · 01-09-2007, 10:01 PM

Man, I wonder why he said that. It thought it was supposed to be under wraps.

Definitely wishing him a full and speedy recovery

squrrelco3 · 01-09-2007, 10:04 PM

Apparently it is treatable...most likely stage 1 based on how they explained it.

Gmanc711 · 01-09-2007, 10:23 PM

Best wishes to all.

Sorry to hear that, for yourself and for the Gibbs family. I can relate to that completely I lost a grandmother to leukemia.

Best wishes for the Gibbs family, hopefully he recovers from it.

That's tough for everyone. Best wishes to the family.

Does anyone think this affect the Skins in 07?

Wow. Tough year for the Gibbs. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

It's rough. Via con Dios, JD

Luxorreb · 01-10-2007, 07:27 AM

This real?

squrrelco3 · 01-10-2007, 08:43 AM

Unfortunately yes...I don't think Tony would lie about something like that...

There are different flavors. Some are more or less chronic, but it can be handled, at least to some degree. The other just kills you out right............fast

jbcjr14 · 01-10-2007, 09:24 AM

Wow, another tough one to handle for the Gibbs family this year. Hopefully they caught this early and it will be treatable. Best of luck to JD and the rest of the family fighting through this.

My prayers go out to the Gibbs family. I am all too familiar with what he must go through, and I wish him the very best.
