Hi, my name is Sara and I had a friend when I was young that was suffering from Hodgkin's disease. I was wondering if you could give me some insights into how you were feeling while going through treatment, trying to stay positive, etc. I admire you greatly for your strength, thank you.0

Hi Jill! I am 31 and a survivor of Hodgkins as well. I was diangnosed in August 2001 and finished chemo one year ago. I have cleared that one year hurdle! Yippee! I actually get more nervous now than I used when I go in for Dr. appts. I sometimes forget that I even had cancer and I think keeping in touch with someone who has gone through it also will remind me more often how lucky I am. I would like to hear your "story" too! Send me an email if you would like! ) Erica in San DiegocreedchickLA said:My name is Jill. I was 24 years old and my newborn was 5 weeks old when I was diaganosed. I would like to chat with survivors

I was also diagnosed with Hodgkin's in 1994. Have you had any problems so far with your remission? If anyone else would like to chat let me know!!0

Hi Erica! This is my 1st time to this web-site, & I think it's great! I'm a Hodgkins survivor as well. I was 13 at the time & received MOPP & ABVD (that was the worst of the 2)I'm now 26 & have been cured for over 12 years now ! I would love to be in contact with other Hodgkins survivors. Maybe by sharing our stories we can have some emotional healing. I too most of the time forget I had "it". It was a very long time ago for me, but I agree we need to be reminded sometimes how precious our lives are. I too get nervous going to Dr's, actually I get nervous whenever I get sick, even a cough or a rash makes me a little worried. (Mine was diagnosed by having a cough - it was a tumor around my esophagus that was chocking me!) Anyway, I would love to hear back from you & any other survivors reading this.Ericalee said:Hi Jill!
