The oldest NHL list is run by Scott Pollock, and was created for all lymphoma types. This list does not have a rule against chit chat and has a very high message load. It can be of particular use to people going thru treatments or a health crisis and needing a lot of support. To subscribe, send a message to nhl-request@jubjub.wizard.com. The subject line should say SUBSCRIBE. The body of the message should read SUBSCRIBE TO NHL LIST.

A series of articles by a MALToma patient was published by Self Magazine, starting with the August 1996 issue. Eventually, it was turned into a book called Living in the Lightning : A Cancer Journal by Natalie S. Robins. Amazon.com carries it.
