SJBUNNY...I am sorry to hear about your daughter. I to am a teen that went through Hodgkins. I was 17 when diagnosed with it. 12 Chemos, 4 straight weeks of radiation, and am now 4 moiths into remission. I am now 18. The only advice I can give you and your family is to talk. Make sure that your daughter talks to you about how she feels going through it. Get everyone involed in the process. Take the family to her chemos. Let her know that the entire family is "pulling" for her. If your religious at all, PRAY. I wasn't a big church go'er PRE-CANCER, but now I have a strong faith in God. Even if chuch and God isn't for you...my prayers will be with you, your daughter, and your family. Just don't be affraid to talk about it!!!sjbunny said:Hello,

Couldn't have said it better myself. The more people involved in emotional support, the better.jeeperskreeper said:SJBUNNY...I am sorry to hear about your daughter.
