Hello everyone.  My name is Nina and I was diagnosed with Hodkin's Lymphoma when I was 14.  Jow, I am almost 21 and really want to do something for others who are survivors of cancer.  I was trying to start a "support group" (I really don't like that phrase) for young adults and teens but all I get is the run around.  Does anyone know what I can do or who I can contact?

I would REALLY appreciate any help!  I think its really important to connect to others and provide support.  Any takers?

Thanks!

Nina

Hello Nina,

  I think its a great idea to start a support group. I am a lymphoblastic leukemia survivor. I was diagnosed when I was 21. Here is a website I designed for leukemia:  www.geocities.com/leukemia_lymphoma

Also, I started a support group from the ground up at my former parish. If you'd like I can offer some advice.

Here is my email:  leu_lym@yahoo.com

Good luck and God bless!  :-)

-Michael
