Top U.S. Junior Triathlete Diagnosed with Cancer
Kevin McDowell-
“Earlier this month, I was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. On Monday, I will begin a treatment plan that includes six months of chemotherapy. This will certainly impact me in the short term, but I am very encouraged by my prognosis for a long-term cure, versus just remission. I am extremely grateful for the overwhelming support offered by friends, fellow triathletes, doctors, nurses and church friends and I look forward to getting back to racing next season.”
An amazing athlete, can't wait until he is back racing the best. Stay strong, Kevin!
