Alyssa

Welcome to my web page. On May 14, 2002 I was diagnosed with high risk T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia at the age of 16. I was treated with one year of intensive chemotherapy and a year and a half of long-term maintenance therapy. I completed treatment on July 28, 2004.

After four years, the time has come for this site to end because I am charging into life head on with all of its challenges and opportunities. I have been in remission for five years and life is good. I want to thank you all for visiting and signing the guestbook and I hope you will keep up with me on my other site. This site will stay up for now, but please update your bookmarks and head on over to Smiles and Simple Things for reflections on life after cancer.
