It’s 2 years out and he’s been pretty sick in the recent past.

Like most people with Hodgkin's lymphoma , he'll probably the live normal lifespan, whatever that is. The odds of him making it to 81 is more than a tad better than 50-50.

The full remission (cure) rate for stages I and II is about 90-95%, while in stages III and IV, the cure rate is about 80-90%. Thus, most patients treated for Hodgkin's lymphoma can go on to live normal, long lives.
