Hannah is
Blood Cancer United

As a busy college student, Hannah is focused on attending her business and art classes - a very different world than the cancer one she was a part of just a few short years ago. At 13 years old, Hannah was diagnosed with Burkitt lymphoma and went on to battle it successfully a second time.

When she thinks back to the experience, she says that the hardest thing for her was dealing with the side effects of treatment. She got through it because her friends and family stood by her every step of the way. Hannah still experiences lingering side effects, but it's not the same as when she was facing cancer head on.

Her focus these days is to get through all those classes, maybe attend graduate school, then one day move to Europe where she can live her dreams.
