| Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) Violet Awareness Ribbon Angel |
Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) uses a violet ribbon awareness ribbon. Let this angel support those with Hodgkin Lymphoma.
Lymphoma is the name
for a group of blood cancers that develop in the lymphatic system. The two main
types are Hodgkin
lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). In 2012, there are about 165,355 people with
Hodgkin lymphoma.
Hodgkin
lymphoma has characteristics that distinguish it from other diseases classified
as lymphoma, including the presence of Reed-Sternberg cells. These are large,
cancerous cells found in Hodgkin lymphoma tissues, named for the scientists who
first identified them. Hodgkin lymphoma is one of the most curable forms of
cancer.
