Daniel Barnett talked on the phone with his old insurance company helping with his case while his girlfriend Beverly Chandler and son Ethan, 2, listened on Thursday morning at his home in Jasper. Barnett was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer called Pleomorphic cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Barnett said he first noticed two bruise shapes on his back Dec. 15, 2015, which over the course of a year grew as big as grapefruit-sized bumps. Doctors still do not know how Barnett developed the incredibly rare form of cancer, but said he received a call yesterday saying the bumps are going away according to his charts. Barnett will begin his fourth of six rounds of radiation and chemo treatments on Monday.
