    • About Me

      I'm an Air Force wife and a SAHM. I have a 4 year old boy. I am a veteran of the U.S. Army. I used to love working out- I am starting to feel more like it now that I'm done with chemo!

    • Close Hodgkin's Lymphoma
      Type: Nodular Sclerosis

      I was diagnosed with "the Hodge" in November of 2008. Just finished chemo, but still have to do radiation.

      Treatments

      ABVD Working / Worked
      My tumor was the size of a grapefruit and a half. On the mediastynum. At the halfway point, there was about 60% shrinkage. All the usual side effects (hair loss-but not until 3 months in), tired, achy... my toenails are just now starting to detach. Had thrush about a quarter of the way in.
    • Close Motherless Children

      I am 36, not a child, but still miss my Mom. It's been 12 years as of June 15th!

      Treatments

      Time Working / Worked
      I lost my Mom to breast cancer in 97. Now I am battling cancer myself. Time is the only thing that can get me through this mess....
