Over ten years ago Coach Marelle was diagnosed with Non Hodgkin’s lymphoma stage four with a prognosis of only six months to live. After the removal of his spleen, massive chemo therapy, and many prayers from family, friends and strangers, his lymphoma was put in remission. However, that wasn't where the story ends.
