Talking about the cancer awareness, all the months have been observed as awareness months for particular one or more types of cancers. A number of campaigns and events are organized in these months to increase the awareness and raise funds for the particular cancer type. September is an awareness month for Leukemia and Lymphoma cancer.

Hodgkin Lymphoma is one of the two types of the Lymphoma and is a cancer of the immune system. In this medical condition, the white blood cells grow abnormally in the lymphatic system and can also spread beyond it. It reduces our body’s ability to fight with various infections. A thing worth noticing is that there are the chances of getting Hodgkin Lymphoma fully recovered, if it is diagnosed on time.
