Hi. I read your message about Hodgkin's and the possibility of it spreading to the brain. When I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's stage IIA in December, I was told that Hodgkin's could not spread to the brain. It basically spreads in an orderly fashion through the lymphatic system and in late stages, into the bone marrow, spleen, kidneys, etc. But, even in late stages it still has a potentially high cure rate.
