non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL)I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in 2019 when I developed a lump under my left chin line. They removed the lump, and then I went through radiation therapy for several months (only four days per week). After more tests, it was determined I was cancer-free. But then a few months later, on the right side of my face by my ear, another lump appeared.

Peyton
non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL)My son, Peyton, was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in 2021 when he was just eight years old. I nearly dropped to the ground in devastation when I heard the words, "Your child has cancer." As a parent, I wanted to fix it. I wanted to make things better but did not know how. We just knew that we were going to fight and learn as much as we could to beat this.

non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL)I was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 27 with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). I was a healthy 27-year-old who went to college playing golf and lacrosse. We found the tumor right by my heart, which was inoperable, so the chemo had to work.

T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LL)My name is Tricia, and I am a two-time cancer survivor. In 2017, at the age of 27, I got a positive pregnancy test. We were elated! We already had a three-year-old daughter and couldn't wait to expand our family. I made an appointment with my OB-GYN to confirm the pregnancy and get a due date when she found a lump on my thyroid. I was constantly assured it would be nothing.

non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL)I’m Steven, a 23-year-old who is no stranger to hard work and resilience. I juggle two jobs and live independently, but six months ago, my life took an unexpected turn when I was diagnosed with a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). In a heartbeat, I was thrown into a world of uncertainty, doctors’ appointments, and intensive treatments.
