Blair is
Blood Cancer United

I'm here and going strong, drumming in a rock band six+ years after my stage 4 mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) diagnosis. At that time, I chose to enter a clinical trial, and I started treatment as soon as possible. I was and am so grateful that treatments for two years with chemo and antibodies allowed me the energy to continue working full-time and to conduct a close to normal life. Family, friends, music, counseling sessions during the treatment years, exercise, and trust in my treatment team have kept me going and will continue to do so.
