Wellness House provides complete cancer care - every step of the way. Whether you have cancer, or you are caring for a friend or family member who is diagnosed with cancer, all are welcome at Wellness House. More than 520 programs are provided each month, both online and in person, to improve physical and emotional well-being and give people with cancer a support network like no other. 

Because of the Walk, and the generous donations of individuals and businesses, everything at Wellness House is provided free of charge, providing one less thing to worry about when struggling with a cancer. That's why I have joined the Walk and why I ask you to join me in giving what you can to support people in the fight for their lives.

Over 18 years ago I began my cancer journey. 2006 I was diagnosed with Follicular non-hodgkins Lymphoma, with a "Watch and Wait" treatment plan. August 2007 my diagnosis changed to Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, an aggressive form of Lymphoma. Chemo treatment started immediately. December 2007 I found out that the chemo treatment had not worked. An auto/my own stem cell transplant was scheduled for April 2008. I am a survivor! Not only am I thankful to Dr Leo Gordon at Northwestern, I am thankful for the Wellness House personnel, programs and participants who supported, consoled, held my hand along this journey.
