• "I was 15 when I was diagnosed with stage 2 Hodgkin's lymphoma. I noticed a lump in my neck that turned out to be a tumour growing in my chest. I had chemotherapy and radiation therapy from May-November 2011 before I was pronounced in remission in December 2011. It was the best and the worst thing to ever happen to me and it has shaped me as a person for life."
