September is Hodgkin's Lymphoma Awareness Month and so I changed up the blog look accordingly. However, I saw a t-shirt the other day that really defined this well. It said:
September Hodgkin's Awareness Month
For my family Hodgkin's Awareness Month is also:
January
February
March
April
May
June
July
August
October
November
December
That sums it up pretty well I think.
I made up this banner below and it will spend the majority of its time this month as my Facebook profile picture. (The only time it will come down is for my son's 4th birthday this month.) I would love if you would all join me in pasting this banner as your FB profile - even if it is just for a day.
I found my first symptom of Hodgkin's Lymphoma 8 months before I was officially diagnosed. When I went to the doctor I was told that lump was a cyst. Please do not get me wrong - I am not angry about this in any way. I know that I was diagnosed according to God's timing and I am totally at peace with that. However, I do know that by getting the word out about my story and the symptoms of Hodgkin's that perhaps someone else will be diagnosed that much sooner - and that just may save someone's life.
Thank you all for continuing to read my blog and for support in prayer and love.
Blessings,
Andrea
