Hello Everybody!

I would just like to introduce myself since I am new here...

I was 16 when I was diagnosed with testicular cancer... received my chemo treatments (total of 6) at CHOP, and had my first big surgery at HUP (Hospital University of PA), then at CHOP, I had lung surgery. I would really appreciate it if you all drop a line by just saying "hi". (:

Thanks, and God Bless!

    Luke,
    I was a teenager when I was first diagnosed too. I was 19 and received chemo and radiation therapy. I'm new here as well and it's good to be in such good company!

    Hi
    Hello to all young survivors, I'm new on here as well. I just wanted to say hi also. I just finished up chemo about a month and a half ago, and I am currently recovering from surgery that I had two weeks ago. I'm 24 years old and I don't know any other young survivors, so I would love to make some new friends.

    Thanks,

    Kristen
