Paul's Heart

Life As A Dad, And A Survivor

World Lymphoma Day

Yesterday, many places lit up in green, red, or purple to pay tribute to those patients, survivors, and caregivers who have faced or beaten any form of blood cancer, such as lymphoma or leukemia. And with that, here is my tribute/memorial to those I have come across in my 23 years as a Hodgkin’s survivor… (and I apologize for any names that I forget – I can always add them – the joy of this being my blog):
