Georgie Swallow was 28 when her body began sending warnings she didn’t want to hear. Itchy legs that bled, drenching night sweats, relentless fatigue, constant colds – each symptom was explained away as stress, allergies, or a busy lifestyle. Even a lump in her neck wasn’t enough to convince her she might be seriously ill. When doctors finally discovered stage 4 Hodgkin lymphoma, everything changed in a moment.
Treatment saved her life but forced her into early menopause before she’d had the chance to become a mother. At 28, Georgie faced hot flashes, mood swings, and the grief of lost fertility while her friends planned futures she could no longer have. Isolated yet determined, she now uses her story to push a simple, urgent message: your body is speaking to you. Don’t wait. Don’t minimize. Don’t assume you’re too young for something to be wrong.
