#Hodgkins Lymphoma
Text
Since I'm "on the other side" of cancer for now, I feel like I can make jokes about it without jinxing everything.
#ro talks#cancer#cancer cw#lymphoma#hodgkins lymphoma#this is all in good fun#i am not ragging on anyone who said any of these things#unless you told me about your cousin's bff's aunt who totally died from lymphoma#then you can go fuck yourself

A clinical trial that included both adolescents and adults with advanced Hodgkin lymphoma shows that 94% of the patients treated with an experimental immunotherapy plus chemotherapy were cancer-free or had no progression of disease after one year.
The results are likely to change standard treatment for this type of cancer, says Jonathan Friedberg, director of the University of Rochester Wilmot Cancer Institute. He is senior investigator of the study and chair of the lymphoma committee at the SWOG Cancer Research Network, which designed the S1836 trial as a part of the National Cancer Institute-funded National Clinical Trials Network.
“We hypothesized that the newer treatment would turn out to be most beneficial for patients,” Friedberg says, “but the magnitude of the benefit exceeded our expectations.”

Idk if anyone care but I do and I can kinda explain: so Hank Green posted a tik tok this morning explaing he has Hodgkins Lymphoma. Lymphoma is a cancer of lymphocytes and Lymph nodes. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell that are essential in body immune response. I could go into more detail on thar if anyone would like.
Anyways lymphomas are generally classified between hodgkins and non-hodgkins. The main differences is that hodgkins favors the upper body usually and also the lymphocytes look like owls kinda and are classified as reed-sternberg cells
Non hodgkins will look abnormal in other ways. (Pictured first) vs a normal lymphocyte (Pictured second)
If hank has the Reed sternberg cells there's therapies developed to target the tumor associated antigens. As well as chemo thay he had mentioned in the video. I'm less familiar with the oncology and therapy side as I work in lab where we mainly monitor conditions via peripheral blood smears and tracking levels of tumor associated antigens and other cancer antigens

A SINGLE MAMAS FIGHT TO SAVE HER LIFE FOR HER KIDS
My name is Kristen, I am 32 years old and I felt old until I got my recent diagnosis from the doctors. I have three beautiful children who absolutely depend on me and me alone and I can't fail them by letting this cancer be the last of me. I had a super rough last 2 years we will say and I had brushed off the not feeling well and completely having my body shut down on me to receiving the news that I am possibly going to pass away...

Something I don't think people realize is that I had to actually relearn how to walk. I also have a medicine where if I use too much of it, I forget how legs work. I think those two things kind of go hand in hand, where I'm going back to my pre-walking age and forgetting how to walk, and need to remember how to walk, and what pressure is appropriate to put on my legs, eithout falling over.

Some of you know my 14 year old has been fighting stage 4 Hodgkins Lymphoma. Fortunately she's doing great, finished her chemo, will start radiation next week.
Her and I designed these pins together to give back to the charities that have helped her, and kids like her. A portion of the profits will go to the Ronald McDonald House, an equal amount to Childrens Cancer Research Institute, a smaller amount to Adi herself, and the rest will go towards paying back the credit card I used to pay for them + possibly ordering more 😅
You can get your own enamel pin here if you want one:

Thank you 🥰

Treatment Diaries 1/12
Hi friends! So I have started chemotherapy, and my course of treatment is going to be every two weeks for about 6 months. And BOI it has really kicked me in the ass. My mouth felt like I'd eaten a cactus, my body felt like I got hit by a truck, and my hair has already started falling out. It's been scary and surreal watching my body go through this process. I'm not in control and it's been very scary. Being highly in control and being highly independent is definitely a part of my own trauma so to let go of the reins and allow people to take care of me and allow people to help me has been really difficult.
I've decided to also defer my decision for school for 6months- a year. It's been a really hard decision because I've really wanted this but I just wouldn't be able to do it as I am now. Grad school is hard even if you're a healthy person. It's definitely a part of my trauma to never want to admit I can't do something so it's been a tough decision. I think it will be for the best though and this time will allow me more space to really enjoy the things I love and focus on healing while preparing for grad school next year. I think I might teach myself to code and use some other platforms or something as more of a hobby so I can still engage in game development and get more experience before I start school. I want to give myself lots to do as well since I'll be off work. I want to write, play games, make games, share stories, and have fun with friends and family since these next few months are going to be really hard.
Anyway this has been a post. I think I might share a diary every week that I have treatment.

I finally got around to making this edit for Origins. I already made one for Awakening. That one was far easier to make.
Sweden is celebrating Xmas today, but I'm not joining the family. I found out earlier this week that I might have Hodgkin's lymphoma: cancer in the lymphatic system. Not to mention that my beloved cat is on his last leg. The year 2022 is not ending well for me.
