I would like to start with a thank you. A thank you too my family, Friends, Loved ones and the many healthcare professionals who are taking amazing care of me. As many of you know, I was diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma, stage 3.  I have completed one cycle of chemotherapy so far and 4 more to go. I will also need radiation therapy after the chemo treatments. I have already been hospitalized twice and had several procedures, tests and pokes. I am just hoping to ease some of my families financial burden during this extremely difficult time. The treatment will last a minimum of 6 months. I am 17 years old, recent high school graduate. I am forced to put off my college plan until I beat this terrible disease. I will not let this disease define me. If you can donate great, if not, please share so others can. I appreciate any support you are able to give.  My name is Aydan Kay Beneteau. 



For those of you wondering here is a list of my costs for my treatment: 

• Chemotherapy (5 different types)
• I’ve been hospitalized twice and I’ve only had once cycle of chemo so far. I need a total of 5 cycles of chemo then we are moving into radiation. 
• Procedures- PICC line and a port soon for the chemotherapy administration, biopsy, CT scans, PET scan, X-rays
