Buddy Holly Is Alive and Well on Ganymede by Bradley Denton

True Facts:Â The movie did not begin filming in October. Lesson Learned:Â Not really a big fan of merry pranksters, here. True Fact:Â Â On the same day that a doctor first said the word “lymphoma” to me, I received an email telling me that the movie version of my second novel would begin filming in October.Â This coincidence seems to indicate that God is a merry prankster.

True Facts:Â Â In June, I was diagnosed with small lymphocytic lymphoma / chronic lymphocytic leukemia.Â SLL/CLL progresses slowly and is considered indolent.Â So rather than start treatment, Iâ€™m engaged in “watchful waiting.” Â Here, then, are a few 2009 True Facts and the lessons Iâ€™ve taken from them:
