I survived Lymphoma


by: Deirdre on Wed, Aug 06 2008

My name is Deirdre and I’m from Kilkenny city. I was diagnosed with lymphoma 12 months ago and I’m in total remission now. It was a shock when I was diagnosed but with help and support from my family and friends I stayed positive and I beat it. The chemotherapy was severe but losing my hair was the worst part but it’s growing back now and knowing that would happen is what kept me from going totally mad. I’m please to say I beat it and I hope I will never have to go through it again.
