Treatments for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma can inflict a toll on the body that is
felt for decades to come
This is a fascinating, timely article on the MANY costs of surviving cancer, and in particular for Hodgkin’s survivors. Eisenstein gives a comprehensive and all-too familiar view of the post-diagnosis life of those who thought their battle was over. The article includes an interview with Kevin Oeffinger, MD, formerly of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in NYC and now a family physician at Duke Cancer Institute in Durham, North Carolina, as well as with other researches in the field of cancer survivorship.
