An inspirational journey through chemotherapy and immunotherapy

Join Deborah C. Smith, a nurse who shares her courageous battle with T-cell lymphocytic leukemia and aplastic anemia. Diagnosed in 2017, Deborah navigated extreme fatigue, frequent transfusions, and challenging chemotherapy regimens before finding hope in ATGAM equine immunotherapy. Despite facing severe side effects and a subsequent diagnosis of congestive heart failure, Deborah's resilience and unique perspective as both a nurse and a patient shine through. Her story offers valuable insights into managing serious illness and underscores the importance of patient advocacy and informed decision-making.

Deborah C. Smith is a nurse.

She discusses the KevinMD article, "Battling aplastic anemia: my journey with ATGAM equine therapy."
