Lymphoma is
unifying name a blood cancer that develops in the lymphatic system.
There are two types, Hodgkin Lymphoma and non-Hodgkin Lymphoma.
Both are cancers that affect the bodys defense system. After being
diagnosed, approximately seven to ten years are left before death,
however, many are able to survive longer than the given amount.
Survival rates have doubled to 87.7 percent in the white population
since 1960-1963, which has become one of the curable cancers, with
a 71.4 percent increase for non-Hodgkin for all people. Signs of
lymphoma can be seen from the size of large cells with two or more
nuclei, or can be from infiltration of B cells or T cells, both
that aid our lymphatic system. Symptoms can be Asymptomatic or the
same as Leukemia.

Types of
Lymphoma are: Acute Lymphoblastic, Acute Myeloid, Chronic
Lymphocytic, and Chronic Myeloid. Unlike Lymphoma which has doubled
in survival rates, Leukemia has quadrupled to 60.3 percent since
the 1960s. In men, Leukemia is the fifth most common cause of
death, while it is the sixth leading common cause of death in
women. For Leukemia, Lymphocytes undergo malignant(cancerous)
change and produce tumors. Symptoms are: Fatigue, Weight Loss,

of Lymphoma all of that exist. The overall survival of Lymphoma in
general is 87.7 percent, while Leukemia is only rated at 60.3
percent. However, it has quadrupled in its survival rates showing
more signs of improvement and success in antidotes. Although the
survival rates are increasing at a faster pace, symptoms are
something to be wary of; in effect, have some sort of toll of the
human body making it perform poorly. This is seen as it the in top
ten common causes of death of both men and women.

They work to
find more cures in order to have an even higher survival rate.
However, they must also raise funds to supply
cancerresearchers their salary along with their materials to
undergo such processes. Funds go to programs such as: Co-pay
assistance, Financial Aid, and Education services.
