Hello everyone.
Before you critasize, I've taught my daughter well, she is well behaved, but the problem has just began..
She's been diagnosed with Lymphoma, She's 15.
She is in love with her ex, they still talk almost everyday.
Lastnight he called her lastnight not even 10 minutes of being admitted to the hospital saying he was leaving in 2 weeks for the marines... (training).
Id give up everything for my daughter, but she told me god chose her path.
She's truly a wreck. I'm super supportive towards her, she does know that. I've baught flowers, choclates... Etc. Nothing is helping.. I'm truly scared.

I'm so sorry to hear this! It sounds like Mom definitely needs help, since she needs to be there as a rock for her daughter.

Has a treatment plan been set up yet?

[anitatibbs1971]

Chemo, is a option. But, she refuses, so were waiting for other plans.

[Wondergirl]

Do you know what stage it is? What about radiation? Why is she refusing chemo?

[anitatibbs1971]

Stage 2.
Like all girls... she doesn't want to lose her hair.
Her best friend has cervical cancer, so she's been a lot of help.

[Wondergirl]

She knows her hair will grow back, right? Has radiation been mentioned?

[anitatibbs1971]

Also her cousin passed away in November, (teen, carwreck).
She's been upset over that too..

[Wondergirl]

I'm so sorry to hear that too -- a double whammy.

Is this Hodgkins or non-Hodgkins lymphoma?

[anitatibbs1971]

Sadly, Hodgkins.

The oncologists have strongly recommended chemo?

(I'm a breast cancer survivor, so have walked through that jungle.)
