Hi Crispy, and a very warm welcome to Cancer Chat!

I spotted Chriss had mentioned riprap - which is a fantastic charity, but it's primarily for teens whose parents have cancer - so I wanted to stop by to offer a couple of other links. 

The charity CLIC Sargent has an online community that's aimed at 16 to 24 year olds who have or have had cancer, and is a great place to give and receive support.  

The Teenage Cancer Trust (TCT) also has some good information about Hodgkin Lymphoma, which may be helpful to you. 

And finally, The Mix offers support to under 25s, and has an active online forum. 

I do hope that you're able to get chatting to others soon and, as Chriss says, you're very welcome to continue to share your thoughts here too.

Best wishes,

Helen
