Welcome to the life of Courtney Leonard 🌻
The life of a Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma cancer survivor ⭐
Well has this journey been one hell of a ride! 2022 has been the best year so far! I'm fully able again to do the things I wanted to so bad during cancer. I can freely walk, run & play with my toddler with ease. No pain. I've got to go to so many new... Continue Reading →
So when you think about cancer, everyone tells you about all the scary stuff. Doctors instill fear inside of you. Even though you are already scared, they don't make it much easier. I had an 11cm mass growing in my chest that was causing me an unbearable amount of pain. So in my best interest... Continue Reading →
Wow, It sure has been some time since I've made an update about my life and what all has been happening. But I've been busy being a mom and to see how many months have passed already is insane. March?! Thats the last time I made a blog update. What is wrong with me?! Leave... Continue Reading →
Well today I feel like I've been hit by a bus. What they don't tell you about cancer is what recovery from chemo might be like. For me it's been a new battle. I'm trying to be the best mom I can be, yet being that mom is SO hard while I feel like utter... Continue Reading →
Well for one thing I am feeling much better! Last time I blogged I was in the hospital with what ended up being a pulled muscle in my chest. Life is starting to resume. I have been able to meet my walking goals lately and I'm in less pain each day! It's nice seeing improvement... Continue Reading →

So here I am rewatching all of Greys Anatomy. I don't feel tired tonight, I just keep thinking about life and everything that comes with it. Life changes in the matter of seconds. And I hate that factor. I have lived a life that many should have never had to live. But yet I was... Continue Reading →
Before I begin my blog my friend Amber created a gofund me for me! Here is the link and know that anything and everything is appreciated. I'm just still struggling with getting state assistance and I still have bills and a little boy to support so even a share helps ♥ : https://gf.me/u/y5pzbj So I'm... Continue Reading →
So the last two days I have been feeling amazing! If you follow me on Facebook you'll see tons of pictures I've been taking and man does it feel good to be able to do that. I was so sick, and now that I'm not I feel amazing. I feel like I can move again,... Continue Reading →
I'm back again for round 3 of chemotherapy. I started doing a little more research on what exactly my chemo was and I was wrong about what I thought I was doing. My nurse sat with me and showed me that I am doing something called EPOCHR. It's Etoposide, Doxorubicin, Cylophosphamide, Vincristine, Predisone, and Rituximab.... Continue Reading →
