I'm a SAHM of two beautiful kids, ages 3 and 6. I'm also VP of a local organization called the Hampton Bays Mother's Organization. I love to be involved with my kid's school, gardening, walking, watching movies, painting, mustangs, boats and being with my friends.

In April I was diagnosed with follicular lymphoma after an incisional biopsy in the hospital and I still have yet to determine how far the disease has progressed. Further testing and oncology visits in the next few weeks will determine that. Everyday I cry, get angry, then get angrier, and then get determined to beat this thing no matter what it takes!!

Five months later, I'm still on a watch and wait with the lymphoma No chemo or radiation as of yet. I have another scan scheduled for November. Hopefully that will show no further growth!
