College basketball grad Coby Karl resting up for NBA
The Cancer Blog
Apr 28th 2007 3:55PM I'm a huge basketball fan, (and Nuggets fan, amongst other teams) and I'm sitting here watching the playoffs as I write this. I just saw the story about George and Coby Karl and this inspired my to look up more information, which is how I've come across this blog. I just wanted to say how much I admire Coby's attitude, strength, and motivation in dealing with a situation that can be so difficult, especially for someone so young. I know, I've been there. I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer when I was 20. I have been in remission for many years now. The experience changed my life and gave me astounding strength I had no idea I possessed. I just want to say how good it is to see Coby and his father George handling this with so much strength and positivity. Every person who is known and respected publicly willing to talk openly about their experiences with cancer make it just a bit easier for the rest of us to understand and deal with our own experiences. I admire Coby's determination and positive outlook, and I admire his father's (and I'm sure, the rest of his family's) support and strength. Support is one of the most important aspects of recovery. Go Nuggets!
