Marisa Sipcic soon learned that an itchy rash, fatigue, and night sweats can all be symptoms of Hodgkin's lymphoma.
It wasn’t until one morning in August 2019, when Sipcic woke up to a golf ball–size swelling on the side of her neck, that she became really concerned. She went back to her doctor, and less than a month later, after scans and a biopsy, she was diagnosed with stage 4a Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
In the five months since her diagnosis, Sipcic has had a course of ABVD chemotherapy, which is a cocktail of four different types of cancer drugs, administered once every two weeks. She’s also had to take prescription medication twice a day.
