For Patients
Being an adolescent or young adult is hard enough. Between the ages of 15-39, a lot happens: high school, college, careers, relationships, traveling, moving to a new place, navigating your way in the world. Adolescents and young adults are just trying to find their identity--a lymphoma diagnosis brings on a whole new set of problems on top of the already difficult challenges of being AYA.
You are not alone. As WAwareness, we want to support patients with our campaign messages, and get our campuses involved in your journey.
Whether you're a new patient, a survivor, or have been fighting lymphoma for a while, the Lymphoma Research Foundation has resources to help you and your loved ones. You can find all these resources, services, and more at lymphoma.org.
