Get well soon, Jon

Just got a Boston Globe breaking news alert that Jon Lester has been "diagnosed with a treatable form of anaplastic large cell lymphoma and will begin treatment within the coming week."

This has got to be the pinnacle of the ugly, black cloud that has descended upon this organization in the past month or so. One of our own players with cancer?! Albeit a very treatable form of cancer, and an incredibly early discovery of the lymphoma that will make his prognosis favorable. But still... can you imagine if Jon Lester hadn't been in that car accident that subsequently led to this diagnosis? He could have played on for months (years?) without knowing.

Cheers to blessings in disguise.

Mr. Lester, you have the support of an entire NATION (that's Red Sox Nation) behind you. Godspeed, amigo.
