Melissa is one year past treatment for Hodgkin's Lymphoma. As a proud
mother and wife, Melissa is excited to walk in the Nike Women's Half
Marathon. She loves chocolate sheet cake and anything fried. Melissa
also likes volley ball and playing cards. In her own words:
I am walking in honor of
those who lost their battles to blood cancers. I am walking in memory
of my grandmother, who passed in December 2007 from Hodgkin?s
Lymphoma. I am also walking for a friend my age who died this January
after finishing the same treatment I went through. I want to find a
cure so that I won?t have to wonder why my treatment worked and hers
didn?t.
