I was diagnosed with a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that usually affects elderly men. I was told I had this cancer at the age of 23. When I received the diagnosis, I wasn’t traumatized. I wasn’t upset or devastated. Instead, my attitude was “what can we do to beat this?”

In January 2013, I was diagnosed with AML after a routine blood test related to my pregnancy. The shock was absolutely terrible. Even worse, the treatments were going to be incredibly invasive. I needed to terminate the pregnancy.

I was diagnosed with AML in January of 2018. My journey began with a trip to the hospital. I thought I had the flu because I was tired and it seemed like no matter how much I slept, I could not recharge.
