Some facts about my treatment:

5 months of chemotherapy & I lost my hair in the first month. Chemo makes you sick, causes pain and headaches, I also went through alot of pain as the cancer cells were trying to leave my blood stream. My cancer returned in February 2010, and I had a Bone Marrow Transplant on May 14, 2010. My big sister Leah was my donor
