My name is Jon. I have a wonderful family (4 kids, amazing wife, huge extended family). I have a great job, great friends and...cancer. I was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in September 2010. On May 4th, 2012 I received a stem cell transplant at Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN.

A Birthday Surprise
So last year I was in the hospital and the team from work sent me a birthday cake. Here is that cake (right). Yes that is Richard Simmons.
The text says "Hang in there. Keep on Dreaming"
I thought it fitting that I should provide them a cake this time around. So embracing my new German DNA I put this together. Hyvee in Brookings did a great job... It turned out awesome. Gotta say I am looking pretty good.
I am told there were some awkward looks when it was picked up from our front desk. I am also told I am quite tasty.
