It is a privilege to welcome Karalyn to the CKSC family! This beautiful young lady is 14 years old. Karalyn is battling Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
Karalyn was diagnosed with stage 2 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma on September 11, 2018. She was declared in remission on September 12, 2020. Several months back, a scan showed that Karalyn had enlarged nodes at level 2 of her neck and prominent nodes at level 3 of her neck. In early November, Karalyn underwent surgery to remove and biopsy all of the enlarged nodes found in her neck, along with ensuring there were none in her chest. Surgery went well and her family was relieved to receive a wonderful report. The largest node was a fatty tumor/tissue and all the other nodes were benign. There was no sign of cancer!
Karalyn was an avid soccer player prior to this past year when chemotherapy took its toll on her ability to last an entire game. She has always played forward and was one of the main scorers in every game for her team.
