What is Lymphoma Lyphe?
 
 
   Lymphoma Lyphe is the brainchild of myself, Jeff and my friend, Megan.  We received so much support with our battles with this horrible disease, that we have decided to pay it forward.  Not so much with facts and statistics, but relating our stories and experiences in the hope that it helps others cope as they begin or struggle with their journey.
 
   A little bit about us.  I am in my mid-40's and now just over nine months in remission from Diffuse Large-B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma.  Megan is in her mid-20's and has just completed a stem cell transplant for Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma.  Some of you may know her from a video she posted to the song "Stronger" by Kelly Clarkson.  I am one of the bald guys trying to keep pace with her dancing while holding the "survivor" sign.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaQdwTsVtCY
 
   We "met" on an online support board, noticed we live 30 minutes apart and became quick and great friends.  We have started our own Facebook page by the same name, "Lymphoma Lyphe" where we video blog.  https://www.facebook.com/LymphomaLyphe#!/LymphomaLyphe
 
   We truly love giving back, participating in our local walk and in my case, having travelled to meet some other warriors.  We hope you find support and useful information as we update along the way.  We can't give medical advice, but perhaps can direct you to the right information.
