This article illustrates my personal experience with non-hodgkins lymphoma and the apprehension of getting involved in a relationship with a man while undergoing cancer treatments, and dealing with the side-effects. However, the only one holding me back from falling in love with someone and defying all odds while going on to get married and have three miracle children was me. This article is all about being a cancer survivor, thriving, and having dreams come true.

As a non-hodgkins lymphoma survivor, I know first hand what that deep dark place called depression feels like. I want the reader to remember they are not alone.

I do, and I'll tell you why in my article. The C-word that changed my life for the better in more ways than I could have ever imagined, forever! In the beginning I felt completely destroyed, a broken human being. THEN, at the end of my protocol, after all of the ups and downs throughout the experience, I felt as if I'd been given a second chance at actually LIVING my life to its fullest. I NEVER would have imagined that from the moment I was diagnosed with cancer that I'd be saying this...I am THANKFUL for having been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and that my life is much more fulfilled for having had the experience. Surviving and thriving is what it's all about.

As we grew older we came to realize that strength was also mental; how to resist peer pressure, how to stay home and study for that exam even though all your friends are out partying. For many of us, our physical strength gets tested more often than the mental so we can't categorically answer, How strong are you?

Although there are many types of cancer that eventually spread to parts of the lymphatic system, lymphomas are distinctive because they originate there. Statistics report that there are about 1,700 children below 20 years of age who are diagnosed with lymphoma each year in the United States. Childhood lymphomas are divided into two basic categories, Hodgkin's disease and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, based on the appearance of their cancerous cells, and is the third most common type of cancer in children.

LOL That was about 17-20 years ago. With her sister, my then wife Vicki, I came over here to Vancouver to visit her obviously dying Sis'. Vick and I lived in Portland with our three children who were all school-age at the time. Cassie, our youngest daughter that we had together, had not yet arrived on this planet. Anyway, Sherin was in her recliner ~ as she had been for a couple of weeks ~ unable to make it up the stairs to her condo's bedroom. I'd no sooner come in the door ~ that she had told my wife would be unlocked for us ~ than Sher asked me, "Honey, what would you do if you were me?"

Among the two, there are more cases of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma among those that suffer from cancer in their lymphoid systems; it encompasses over 29 types of lymphomas. In the United States, the cases of reported Non-Hodgkin's are at least seven times as common as cases of Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

This system helps filter out bacteria and plays an important role in fighting diseases. However, just like any other organ system in the body, it is also vulnerable to developing cancers. Unfortunately, cancers that affect the lymphatic system can be dangerous, since lymph nodes are located all throughout the body. And just like leukemia, cancers involving the lymphoid system have the potential to spread.

Some cancers where this is very true include breast cancer and prostate cancer because early detection of the disease makes it easier to treat since the cancer is usually just found in one localized area. With regard to lymphomas, the same principle applies; early detection of lymphomas has been proven to lead to higher survival rates. The key to early detection is an awareness of symptoms that indicate the presence of a lymphoma. Fortunately, research on this topic is extensive and provides a wealth of information that can help people detect the symptoms of lymphoma.

There is always new research somewhere showing how eating this or that will help us and potentially protect our bodies from getting cancer. Some of the studies are valid, some are not; some of the research shows that it cannot completely prevent it, simply reduce our chances by this percentage or that percentage providing we are male or female, black or white, old or young, etc. Wed, 24 Aug 2005 17:38:08 -0500 http://ezinearticles.com/?Preventing-Cancer-with-Green-Tea?&id=63522 http://ezinearticles.com/?Preventing-Cancer-with-Green-Tea?&id=63522 Cancer in any form is a deadly disease.
