There’s no one reason to GO LIME. 💚

For some, it’s for a loved one.
For some, it’s because they’ve faced lymphoma themselves.
For others, it’s to honour someone they’ve lost, support someone still fighting, or help create a better future for those yet to be diagnosed.

Whatever your reason, you’re part of something bigger.

This September, we’re putting lymphoma in the LIMElight, raising awareness and funds to support Australians affected by lymphoma.

These are just a few reasons why the community are going lime this year.
💚 What’s your reason to GO LIME?

Lymphoma is a group of more that 80 different subtypes of cancer that starts when specialised immune cells called lymphocytes become cancerous. Lymphocytes are a type of blood cell that fight germs to prevent infection and disease.

But, unlike other blood cells, most lymphocytes are not in our blood, they are in our lymphatic system and can travel to any part of our body.

It can get really confusing but we like to explain lymphoma as the what, the where and how:

The what – Lymphoma is a cancer of blood cells called lymphocytes.
The where – Lymphocytes live mostly in our lymphatic system so lymphoma
normally starts in your lymph nodes or other parts of your lymphatic system.
The how – lymphocytes help are a part of our immune system so lymphoma can
cause you to get more infections or have trouble getting over them.

🧡 Today is World CLL Day 🧡

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is a blood cancer that affects B-cell lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell that plays an important role in our immune system.

CLL is closely related to lymphoma. In fact, the World Health Organization classifies CLL as a subtype of lymphoma, and CLL and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) are essentially the same disease.

At Lymphoma Australia, our support extends to people living with CLL too. We provide dedicated information, resources and support for people with CLL/SLL, as well as education and advocacy to help improve care and access to treatment.

Today, we recognise everyone affected by CLL — the people living with it, the families and loved ones beside them, and the healthcare professionals providing their care.

Don't forget, we do have a free online webinar on CLL today: understanding your treatment options. It's not too late to join, register here - https://www.lymphoma.org.au/events/webinar-cll-today-understanding-your-treatment-choices/

🧡 Today, we stand with the CLL community 🎗

On average, 12 Aussies are diagnosed with lymphoma every single day. They join the more than 26,000 Australians living with the disease.

For them and their families, their friends, and their communities, lymphoma is part of the everyday. This September, we're making sure it becomes part of the conversation too.

Lymphoma Australia is here to support, year round. And it is through the power of community that we are able to make it happen.

Consider going Lime or sponsoring a fundraiser this September, to support Australians and shine a light on Lymphoma. golime.lymphoma.org.au đź’š

Have you heard that red meat, sugar, fried or other food causes lymphoma, or encourages it to grow and spread?

It can be really hard to know how to get the right information. And, when you are diagnosed with lymphoma, you may wonder what caused it, or how you can stop it from growing and spreading.

From what we know, there is nothing you could have done differently to have prevented the lymphoma. Unlike other cancers, there is no identified lifestyle factor that causes lymphoma, although some risk factors have been identified.
