Yesterday I was diagnosed with nodular sclerosing lymphoma. It’s just another path that God has sent me down that we didn’t plan on. — Clate Schmidt (@CSchmidt32) June 2, 2015







It’s something that they caught early and it’s treatable with chemo and therapy. We are gonna be surrounded by the best of the best. — Clate Schmidt (@CSchmidt32) June 2, 2015
