I'm Sue and my sister died nearly twenty years ago of NHL.

I'm pleased that more research is being done now, and more people survive.

Hi Sue,

I'm very sorry that you lost your sister to NHL. There are many subtypes of the illness and little by little they are becoming more treatable for longer. Hopefully the indolent forms will become just another chronic illness that can be managed for many years and that better treatments will keep coming on stream for the more aggressive forms. I have Follicular Lymphoma myself and so far am doing well.

Not what you're looking for?
