I was diagnosed with blood cancer when I was a 19-year-old sophomore in college. That summer, I had started to get deep, constant coughs. I went to the doctor’s office at least three times, only to be diagnosed with a cold or bronchitis.I continued to feel unwell for several months.

In Memory

People tend to think that cancer will never affect them. I know, because I was once one of those people. Growing up, I never knew of anyone that had cancer. Then, in 2005, my father-in-law contracted a brain tumor; the worst type. I remember feeling a sort of, panicky feeling in the beginning as we were told he had three to six months  to live.

Leukemia Survivor

My husband, Dale, was first diagnosed with leukemia in October 2011, after we noticed a bubble under his chin. His chemo treatment lasted for four months, and in May of 2012, he was in remission. We were very excited to learn those results. He took his port out, and started living life again. Early in 2015, Dale was told his cancer was back, and the skin bubbles started to reappear.

Makayla

LCH Survivor

Makayla Lemons was diagnosed with Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) when she was six years old. She had a pain in her left arm, so I took her to the Children's Hospital in Columbus, and they found it by x-ray. Blood work and an MRI confirmed that she had LCH. She underwent chemo for one year, but today she is 10 years old, and has been in remission for three years!
