Battling Lymphoma

What is Hodgkin Lymphoma? Resources Other Young Adults Like YOU With Hodgkin Lymphoma
My name is Kayla. I am 21 years old and I created this blog to document my journey. I was recently diagnosed with a type of cancer; Hodgkin Lymphoma (stage II). My course of treatment for the next 4-6 months will be chemotherapy. Although Hodgkin Lymphoma has a very good prognosis - it is still very frightening to be diagnosed with a serious illness. Hopefully my blog will help others fighting this disease as well as the family members and friends who support them :)

Things I am Thankful For

Today was my first day of being “back” so to say from the nightmarish state of discomfort I’ve been in since chemo last Tuesday. Although I wasn’t 100% today, I definitely felt better than I have in days and for that I am very thankful! Here is a list of the little things that I am thankful for when I start to feel better.
I am thankful for:
~The ability to stay awake for a whole television show and/or movie
~Having actual cravings for food instead of meal time feeling like a chore
~Wanting to go outside and get fresh air
~Feeling the need to talk to other people instead of keep to myself
~Having the energy to put on make-up! : )
