March 27, 20187 yr Awesome news. Not surprisingly it looks like he has lost a lot of weight. Hope he keeps progressing!
March 27, 20187 yr chemo (and radiation) will wreak havoc on your body, and it's not unusual to lose 25% of your weight when undergoing treatment. in particular, it's very hard to eat if you end up with a bad case of mucositis followed by the inability to swallow food (and even pills). movement is medicine!

April 3, 20187 yr I had a bone marrow transplant back in 1993, so I know what he's up against. Thankfully, those were the dark ages of leukemia treatment compared to what they can do today. Kick its ass, Andrew!

May 20, 20187 yr Looks to me like he's posting old photos. I think the one where he's standing in red shoes is current

If he can come back at 100% sometime during the year, thats great but its not as easy as most think. Being back at 100% is a far cry from the video of him above. Personally he should plan on redshirting this year but if the doctors give him a clean bill of health, then it will be tough to keep him off the court.
July 6, 20187 yr I agree. Although he certainly wants to get back as soon as possible i think that a redshirt year is the only way to go.

July 24, 20187 yr Hey, Andrew... I don't think you can do it. Much love but I DON'T THINK YOU CAN DO IT

July 24, 20187 yr i don't think aj has any plans of sticking around for his senior season. if he's healthy he'll go pro after this year.
