Biography

I was 40 years old when I started to get symptoms of strep throat…after going for around a year of test, scans and X-rays, the “specialists” decided that I didn’t have strep..I had “Non-Hodkins Lymphoma” with a 9lb mass that had grown on my right lung. It was so large that it cracked my collar bone. After that, came chemo and radition, etc. I spent almost a year in and out of ICU and on life support 3 times.

Now I am almost 50 and was told that I am dying of something completely different.

Will input chemo and radition dates later.
