Liesel is
Blood Cancer United

In July of 2018 my life was flipped upside down when I was diagnosed with stage 3 Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The disease was further complicated by a tumor in my chest which led to a blood clot in my neck that later traveled to my lung.

I went through 6 months of chemotherapy, and can happily say I’m in remission!
