A few years ago, it was announced that Brandon Sorensen was being treated for leukemia. I did read that he was in remission but that was about two years ago. Has anyone heard how he is doing?

Sorensen Update, anyone?
Anyone know how he’s doing and what he’s doing these days?

Couldn’t hurt to ask there. I thought I saw something more recent from @IAChief32 in a different thread. My recollection is that he was doing well. 💪🏻
Brandon was always one of my favorite Hawkeye wrestlers. I always felt bad that he was matched up with Zain. Then again, I felt bad for anyone matched up with Zain.1 year ago:

As far as I know, he's doing well. He wrestled in the room quite a bit. I've seen quite a few clips of him drilling with Spencer.
Not taking that bait.
Thats good too hear.
For some cancers, such as the one I have, you aren't "cured" -you are treated into remission because the mutant cells cannot be completely eradicated and they make come back.
I remember reading he had a form of leukemia (and in some cases these things are misnamed-my "leukemia" is actually a chronic low grade lymphoma)
I visit my oncologist every six months. He's told me that I had this thing for years as it is an insidious and indolent thing, and my treatment should be good for 5-10 years typically, although some go longer. He can reuse the same chemo or simething stronger, depending on its reemergence. I expect we'll be talking wrestling again in my next appt in Dec, just short of four years since my treatment, Dec 2019.
Long story short. When you hear that a blood cancer patient is in remission, think "successfully treated and living a mostly normal life"
Pro Tip.. If you are over 50, get a CBC aa advised by your provider, catching stuff early can give you a bettee chance of not needing transfusions and other supportive stuff.

If I were you I’d check out this scientist from Boston College. Hope the best for you.

He is doing well. Working with guys in the room. No this is not CaelSpeak for he's dead.
