Felicia is
Blood Cancer United

Felicia in living space with grey hoodie

Hi, my name is Felicia. I was diagnosed in 2021 with stage 4 non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Unfortunately, my kidneys failed, and now I am on dialysis three days a week. I am now on the list for another kidney. I want to share my story to encourage other people. I also have an artificial leg since I was born.
