September is Blood Cancer Awareness Month

I thought it would be nice to share a few facts throughout the month. 

                              

DID YOU KNOW………

There are 137 types of blood cancers and related disorders. These cancers involve blood cells, the bone marrow, the lymph nodes and other parts of the lymphatic system. The main types of blood cancers include:

Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Other, less common, blood cancers, such as myelodysplastic syndromes and myeloproliferative neoplasms.
