On May 11, 2005, Robbie was diagnosed Burkitt's lymphoma, a rare form of non-Hodgkin’s disease. Soon after, he began rigorous chemotherapy treatment, and he was in remission by August 2005. On July 4, 2006, he noticed another lump on his neck which turned out to be benign. But then in early June 2008, he was told he had Burkitt's again. He had 2 cycles of RICE chemo, was in remission, then had an auto stem cell transplant on October 10, 2008.

you look at it... I bag takes about 3 hours to go through my veins.
