About Me
Hi! I am a 36-year-old mother of two. I was diagnosed two months ago. I was at the hospital to have a weird bruise on my forearm looked at. When we arrived, we saw a couple of dermatologists who were sure it (and the high white cell count) was a result of a spider bite. Eight hours later, I was sent home with a diagnosis of either Lymphoma or Leukemia. Worst night of my life, and the first night in my life that I actually laid in my mom's lap - scared to death.

And BTW I am a hugger. I just want to thank you again for writing to me. It has made me feel so much better knowing there is someone out there, so close to my age, with a family, and all the scary thoughts that I have.
I’m With You
