Hi everyone,

I never thought I would be posting on this forum but my girlfriend has just been diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma.

She is very positve and strong minded about it, her father also had this when he was her age and is still fighting fit.

She will begin Chemo next week and thought this group could be a useful place to be a part of.

The fact she might lose her hair is her biggest concern, her father didnt though and obviously I am reassuring her I will love her just as much as now if she does lose it- hair grows back.

If anyone in a similar position to me had any advice on how I can make sure she is comfortable and stress free as possible that would be great.

I have a good friends group around me that have been very helpful the past couple of days.

I wish everyone the best, no matter where they are on this long journey.
