Is there anyone out there with experience of or has had NHL (Non Hogkins Lymphoma)?

Hi

As the title describes i am looking for anyone that has or has had experience of NHL, either first hand or a family member has it as i am looking for someone to talk to about things as my mum has been diagnosed with it and is starting her 2nd round of chemo next week!

So if there is anyone out there that wouldnt mind me bending their ear or just telling me their story i would appreciate it, plus any advice or hints on how i can help my mum along the way i would appreciate that too!

Thanks

  • Hi mate,

    I don't know the ins and outs of your mams illness but I can tell you that I have just finished 6 cycles of chemo for Non Hodkgins Lymphoma (difuse large B cell). I guess I was quite lucky as they diagnosed me pretty quick. Chemo was no picnic bruv, however, mentally, you know it's saving your life! Just the fact that you are concerned for your mam will mean so much to her (the support from my fiancee is what kept me going) She won't have anything to worry about as long as she's got your support mate.
