    Welcome..
    Hi Karyz19,
    Maybe you can share a little more information with us with the type of cancer you are dealing with. I have Follicular NHL and I'm 60 years old. I'm so sorry this is something you have to go through at such a young age. This is a great group of people and someone is usually around to answer questions or lend support on many levels. Take care and hope to learn more about your situation. Sue (FNHL-2-3A-6/10)

    Hi Kary, It is normal to have all kinds of emotions when you hear the word cancer. Please let us help you by explaining what the Dr. said. You are young and strong. You will fight this and win. Many people are here to help you in your journey. Joanie
