FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

JODIES JOURNEY FOUNDER – HER PATH & LIFE STORY

BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA - Jodie Guerrero (founder of jodiesjourney.com & consumerconsultation.com) is currently dealing with her 3^rd health difficulty, relating to Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, but is not letting it hold her down.  ‘I have been on a round-about of treatment, hospital/s & doctors for many years now.  I believe that the reason my health has been a battle has been due to a delayed diagnosis’, Jodie says.  ‘We need to get this message out there, that young cancer patients are more often initially not getting the urgent care they should, due to various circumstances (including: their appearance, their youth, or their beauty)’ Jodie says. ‘GP’s & primary care physicians often assume that if a young patient looks well, they are well’ - ‘this is not always the case’.
   
Jodie received a delayed diagnosis of extensive Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, due to medical negligence - which was proven by her state medical board.  Many young cancer patients are dealt a delayed diagnosis & the stats (example one & two) to support this, are shocking.  Jodie has been fighting Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma for 5 years, with current problems effecting her right leg.  She is determined to face every challenge of her life with strength, courage & boldness.  She uses her journey, as a consumer advocate, to speak to media, politicians, government, policy makers, medical staff & many, many survivors of similar circumstances.  Jodie has taken her experiences & circumstances to the next level & is determined to reach as many people as possible with her message.
